COVID CLEANING... please be assured we take the health and well-being of our guests with upmost importance, that is why we have gone beyond the increased cleaning/santising regime proposed by letting Agents and have undertaken to 'sanitise mist' the entire property between lets with an anti viral biocide, a similar process undertaken by airlines, schools, hospitals and large Hotel chains, to ensure all surfaces, including textile surfaces, sofas, carpets, etc receive anti viral treatment.
