This place was in such a great area. We had dolphins swimming by and even up to the jetty. There were black swans, ducks, pelicans and cormorants. The house is wonderful but is in need of some TLC. 1 of the rooms classed as a bedroom was originally the study and has no door to it. Besides that my friends and myself had a wonderful time. Will definitely book again

The Canal house did not disappoint, it had everything we needed for a family boating holiday. The jetty was an absolute bonus, the kids loved dropping the crab pots from both the boat & jetty while we enjoyed a drink overlooking the canal. The house has 5 bedrooms. It’s an old house but kept very clean. It has everything for an enjoyable holiday. We loved it. Thank you Joan
