Had a great stay in Thain House, location was great for places we wanted to visit, was well equipped, parking was okay but on a few days had to park further a field and being disabled driver was sometimes hard getting to house. Would definitely...

This is a large 3 bedroomed well loved family home with all the facilities you need including a very well equipped kitchen. It was warm and the heating controls are available to adapt to individual needs. The owner was available by phone if needed...
