Love everything about the place and love the refurb since we last visited in 2021. The furniture in the living space is much better! Just a note to say a couple of the dishes weren’t totally clean in the cupboard. Not a big deal but worth mentioning. Also could do with tumbler style glasses as only wine glasses or pint size glasses.
