Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this property isn't suitable.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight may be an issue.

  • No smoking on site — The entire property is non-smoking, which may be a drawback for smokers.
