No double glazing in the units to cut down the road noise which is only metres from the unit we stayed in. We would have liked to of watched sky TV but both the evening and morning after advertise that the sky was not available due to atmospheric conditions which I seriously doubt. There was only one coffee sachet provided and it would’ve been nice to have a cuppa coffee at night and one the next morning. The hot water pressure was minimal and not sufficient to have a comfortable shower.

A nice spot for the night. It is right next to the road so road noise is regular.
