The property was in a great area, right at the central Marketplace, British food, Indian Food, Turkish Food, a Bakery (Gregg's), a grocery store x 2, plenty of clothing stores (FatFace, Dorothy Perkins) Fish & Chip Shop, Shake Shop.. you name it, it is within 2 minutes walking distance. It is also right on a bus line, and only a 5 minute drive to the local train station. It has nice accommodations and is very clean. The owner's met us upon arrival and showed us the important items, and they also have a book with instructions and menu's, anything you would need to know about staying there. There was small bits in the fridge for us upon arrival (wine, butter, bread, jam, yogurt, orange juice etc.) as well as some small cakes (mince pies), and plenty of tea, sugar, coffee etc. Completely stocked with dishes etc. Has a washing machine/dryer in one & dishwasher as well. Bedrooms were basically furnished, duvet/covers & pillows provided, and towels were provided (need a few face wash cloths). We love the place, and would definitely stay there again if we are in the area. The view from upstairs (sitting room) over the river, was great.. freezing, but great LOL. We were able to open the windows a few days when it wasn't very cold.
Only negative was the washer/dryer.. the quickest setting for the dryer was 4 hours 10 minutes... so if you are planning on washing/drying, just do it overnight! Nothing bad to say about here, it is a gem!
PS, thank you for the Christmas gift of cookies!!! They were quickly gone.
