Overall we had a nice stay. The house is lovely although in an area where there was quite a few disturbances with property 99 next door. Police constantly arriving. A property of that size dhould have 2 toilets.Dont book this property if you have mobility issues. Well equipped.

This property is located within a short walk from the south bay or from the town centre so was ideal for us . Parking close by was possible although we were there for the bank holiday weekend and we fell lucky with a space coming free as we arrived - the parking permit was in the lounge ready for us. Communication with the host was excellent and she was very accommodating. The property has very steep internal stairs , this was in the description but just make sure you are prepared for them I wouldn’t for example want to carry a baby up and down them. The property is full of original features which make it quite quirky if you like modern clean lines this property may not be for you ! There were lots of additional conveniences and a lovely bottle of wine ( much appreciated) and overall we had a great stay - I only took off the 1 star of my overall score as it could do with a coat of fresh paint in some places I am however aware we were going peak season and this would probably have to wait until the off season

We were very happy with this property, we booked it as we were celebrating my Dads 60th so needed a base near by, the north and sound bay are easily walkable but hilly. The property was clean and well cared for and provided the basics and more for our 2 night stay, it’s a delightfully quirky property, there were lots of steep stairs as the property’s over 4 floors but we didn’t mind at all, it adds to the character of this pleasant property and we would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.
