Some check in issues but good
We stayed for the weekend and when arriving after the check in time we found dirty glasses on the tables and in the sink. The owner apologised that the cleaner hadn't had a chance to finish preparing the property but offered to to clean after our check in. We declined this, as we could clean the glasses ourselves and everything else seemed clean. However the owner still sent the cleaner there after we had checked in and left it luggage there, and while we were out getting supplies. I would have preferred if the owner had respected my wishes.

Majors House
Good location, clean, a bit dated. Lounge large size and comfortably accommodated 5 people. Good vibe. TV on the small size but got used to it very quickly. Kitchen comfortable, well equipped and clean. Unable to close door (about 20cm) of second twin without moving beds.

Enjoyable Stay
We had a very enjoyable stay. Although it was a bit small and no back yard it accommodated our needs. The only thing we would suggest that needs to be change is the size of the tv.
