Further details
As the property is our family home, we do have an 'on-site cat', who is extremely child and baby friendly and has his own cat-flap, though daily feeding would be required (food supplied).
All visitors 'visit' at their own risk, as an older building it isn't 'flat-walled' and perfectly manicured but we think that's what gives it the family and homely charm and are sure that everybody would have a wonderful holiday here.
