Great location, cute traditional property, good social space

Tenth House was a good space to stay, really quaint, traditional, and a great location close to the town but on a quiet street. The property was a little cramped for adults, the 2nd (bunk) bedroom very small, and living room already cosy, let alone if the sofa bed was needed, but kitchen/dining space is comfortable for 4.
