You will find the house free of clutter with modern, brand new IKEA furniture and drowning in storage cupboards and wardrobes. It is large and works well for family and sociable holidays or weekend breaks.
Weekend and short break bookings are possible with 3 and 4 night short breaks available between October and April.
It can very comfortably accommodate 10 people and a baby with a maximum of 6 adults and lots of children. It even has its own playroom, playstation and a selection of toys and games, a TV and video just for the kids.
Having been on self catering holidays where the cleaner had cleared the holiday cottage and we had to go and buy salt, washing up liquid etc., we resolved to try and make things easier for our guests. You will find the beds made up when you arrive, a supply of towels and we always leave the house with stocks of cleaning materials, loo rolls, tea, coffee and biscuits as well as basic condiments.
The Coop is only 5 minutes walk and has a great selection of everything you might need. It is also open from 8 am to 8 pm everyday except Sunday when it is open from 10 am to 4 pm.
