    “The negative: The lack of space in the top master bedroom with ensuite.”

    My OH is very muscular and could not move or bend in the shower or space that housed the shower and toilet. To have a shower, I had to hold the shower gel for him. I am 5ft 8 and a size 10 and found it a squeeze to move around in there. The space is too tight for a shower and toilet. There is no sink in the space. You use the toilet then have to wash your hands in the shower cubicle. To clean your teeth in the master with ensuite, you have to rinse using the shower. I appreciate we need to ...

    My OH is very muscular and could not move or bend in the shower or space that housed the shower and toilet. To have a shower, I had to hold the shower gel for him. I am 5ft 8 and a size 10 and found it a squeeze to move around in there. The space is too tight for a shower and toilet. There is no sink in the space. You use the toilet then have to wash your hands in the shower cubicle. To clean your teeth in the master with ensuite, you have to rinse using the shower. I appreciate we need to bring our own loo roll etc, but the products provided in the kitchen were minimal. There was about 4 squirts of washing up liquid left, and the tea towel was tiny. We only came away for 2 nights for a birthday, so didn't think we needed to pack washing up liquid, loo roll and tea towels. The good: The house is tidy and compact. The beds are super comfortable (to the point that I tried to find out what the mattress was in the master upstairs as it was soooo comfy) the bed linen is nice. The kitchen is stocked well with pots and pans and the fridge is clean and of a decent size. We didn't use the garden as 2 of our party didn't come with the dog, and it was raining, but the outside space look large, but if you have mobility issues you might struggle to get to and from the deck advertised in the photo. I would stay here again but would defo use the downstairs bathroom rather than the master ensuite.
