Home truths

    This home is best suited to a family - bedroom 3 is decorated for children and has 2 single beds and a further sofa bed suitable for another child.

    The 2nd more modern and spacious bathroom on this property is on the lower ground floor. Hopefully, you don't mind climbing down a couple of flights of steps to use this additional bathroom.

    The other bathroom, on the first floor, that serves all 3 bedrooms is rather small and hasn't been updated in a while.

    This is an authentic family home - it's not perfect, but that's part of the charm.

    You will be provided with high-quality bed linens, a bath mat, bath towels and tea towels for the kitchen. Your host also provides shampoo, shower gel, and toilet paper at the beginning of your stay, but not throughout.
