Exploring Middleton

This property was very welcoming and comfortable, with simple entertainment of books, DVDs and games. The kitchen was well stocked with basic appliances and cookware. The private back yard was a nice place to eat. We enjoyed the opportunity of exploring Middleton and surrounding towns.

Holiday at middleton

Lovely back garden for our whippet to enjoy. Would have liked a rail at steps by front entrance as we are in mid 70’s and I felt a bit insecure entering the place, otherwise lovely and peaceful. Thank you allowing us to stay. Will recommend to friends.🌹

This place is a gem. Big backyard for the doggies and rooms for the kids for lazy days playing board games after trips in the mornings and beach walks and bunny sightseeing at night. I can’t wait to stay here again.
