Very good

Great quiet location and enjoyed watching the river flow by. Allocated parking. Apartment well equipped for self catering (need to take basics like milk, bread, tea, coffee, sugar etc with you). Property generally very clean but rug could do with some attention. Bed comfortable but felt a bit small. Sofa was the most uncomfortable we've ever sat on. Lovely deep bath but difficult to get in and out due to no grab rails and the shower was over the bath.
