The location is within 5-10 mins of 2 large supermarkets, 5 minutes from a lovely green space, and the same for the historic centre. Tip: If you are struggling to get hot water from the bathroom tap adjoining the bedroom, simply turn the shower on for a few seconds and you will get hot water from the tap.
