The house is clean, comfortable and set up exactly the way you want it for a group gathering. Everything was new, easy to use and straightforward. Plenty of space, good layout and a nice spot to relax without feeling crowded.Robin was easy to work with and went out of his way to make sure things were ready for us. You can tell he put real thought into getting the place set up right.If you’re looking for a simple, well-kept place for a getaway or group stay, this one does the job really well. We’d come back. ##### Richard ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Batu Karang Lembongan Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lembongan-Island-Hotels-Batu-Karang-Lembongan-Resort-Spa.h8715414.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Surkhet](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Surkhet.d3187.Hotel-Destinations) > > [The Coed-Y-Mwstwr Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Coed-Y-Mwstwr-Hotel.h3717304.Hotel-Information) > > [Ski Hotels in Montreal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montreal-Hotels-Ski-Hotels.0-0-d178288-tSkiHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Homes Solihull](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Solihull-Private-Holiday-Homes.d5689-aaPrivateHolidayHomes.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [travelodgeuk Hotels in Kilgetty](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kilgetty-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d6126577--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Chatham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chatham-Hotels.d10743.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [B&B Churchdown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Churchdown-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d3000716142-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Maxim Quartier Latin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Maxim-Quartier-Latin.h10359.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Jehan de Beauce](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chartres-Hotels-Hotel-Restaurant-Jehan-De-Beauce-Les-Collectionneurs.h1350069.Hotel-Information) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d178293-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Express London - ExCeL by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-ExCeL.h9010783.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Pomarance](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pomarance-Hotels.d6094857.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Hillsborough](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Hillsborough-Hotels.s50-0-d182718.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Balcony in Leeds City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-City-Center-Leeds-Hotels-Hotels-With-Balcony.0-n6340976-0-tHotelswithBalcony.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Changchun (CGQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/cgq/london-to-changchun) > > [Flights from Jasper (APT) to Whistler (YWS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/apt/yws/jasper-to-whistler) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Luque (ASU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/asu/edinburgh-to-asuncion) ### Cars > [Car hire in Deposit](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Deposit.d183661.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities ### Packages > [Getxo Aquarium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Getxo-Aquarium-Bilbao.d6189264.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Queens Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Queens-Quarter.dx6054351) > > [Visit Lazio](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lazio.dx6048637) > > [Visit Cathedral Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belfast-Cathedral-Quarter.dx6176745) ---
