The location was amazing, lovely village. The flat had everything we needed for a lovely stay Beds were comfy The kitchen was well equipped We absolutely loved the flat Just a few little things that might help. A socket near the mirror in the twin room. May a side table/ some drawers as well A bath mat, as the floor was slippy The tv was a little difficult to get on. Something on the feature wall in the twin room would be nice

Great little flat for our stopover, well presented, clean and good location. Fairly noisy location being in the market square and next to the clock which chimes every hour through the night too.

Great location. Lovely welcome basket. Lighter and airy feel to the property. Good place to store our bikes safely. Host was very available when needed. We have nothing to write about. Everything was better than expected.

Loved our short stay in Brampton, the hosts were so lovely and accommodating after I mucked up our dates which we really appreciated! We arrived to a gorgeous basket of goodies and everything was very clean and comfortable. Nothing, everything was great!
