This house has amazing views in clear weather. It is very quiet (apart from the cathedral clock striking every hour). It is better equipped with tables than much holiday accommodation: lovely if you like to write or draw. The garden is beautifully spacious and secluded, with lots of grass to play on, although there isn’t a gate to keep dogs or children inside it. The cathedral is just a few minutes’ walk away, as is the little supermarket open till 9pm (4pm Sundays). It’s quite something to have all that, and yet also be able to have your car (s) parked right outside the door. We don’t think there could be a better location. When we arrived, all the beds were nicely made up and clean, but we did need to find and use the vacuum cleaner. We also needed to find the switch for the immersion heater to get hot water. (It’s in a cupboard in the twin-bedded upstairs bedroom.) I would not fancy trying to get washing dry inside, as the washing machine doesn’t have a fast spin and the house is somewhat damp, but there is a washing line under the carport as well as one in the orchard. There’s a variety of seating: even I was able to find a chair where I could sit comfortably, which is rare! The dining room, kitchen and sitting room are all separate rooms, and the upstairs bedrooms also have enough space for sitting or playing, so people aren’t all on top of each other if you are spending time in the house. Do take note of the bathroom arrangements in the property description, and perhaps bring dressing gowns and slippers for going outside to access the shower. A previous review mentioned lacking a hairdryer and radio: both these items were present when we stayed (July 2017)
