We have just returned from a few days away with family and it was the perfect house for a multi generational stay. The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we could need and the welcome pack in the kitchen was so thoughtful and so useful.

The kitchen had a good range of appliances and…

We were very impressed by the apartment, everything was of top quality and spotlessly clean, you couldn’t wish for more. Shops and restaurants were not too far to walk to, with lovely views over the river/estuary. We would love to return sometime in the future. …
