Holiday accommodation

Apartment beautifully decorated and clean fab location. The Annexe was very hot and noisy also kept awake by the light out in alleyway. The including parking is not in the best of places at the Rugby club. Very steep hill and takes around 25 mins to walk to and from. This needs to be explained better.Also then number we had to contact for parking never answered. We paid for one of the cars before we left home for the 4day but ended up paying again for a closer parking lot.
