The park was just two mins walk away and the high street is literally on its doorstep. The flat was very clean and had plenty of light. ##### Ewen Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dario 5 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication The apartment was suitable for our three nights. We finally ate a home cooked meal and relaxed for a change. The area around the apartment doesn’t look inviting with commercial sheds and what appeared to be an abandoned camper van but once inside it feels very homely. The bathroom could do with repairs as the floor tiles are loose. Most likely from water leaking from the bath tub. Overall, we were happy with our stay. ##### Dario Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### markus 24 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt. ##### markus Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 25 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This property was fantastic.
