Lovely place, had everything we needed. Appreciated the little touches, the welcome pack, the bathroom products. Great location, really close to good roads, amenities and Alton Towers.

The main purpose for our stay was visiting Alton Towers - 20 minute drive which was great. The size of the house made out stay all the easier, having 4 bedrooms which is difficult to find. The house was also great value for money.
