This is a great little jewel in an upcoming area. Just down the road from everything. The furnishings are comfortable (esp. the beanbags for lounging in front of the large telly) and the 'look' is stylishly light, bright and airy. Opening windows are always a plus in my book. There's a cute paved courtyard garden with lush plants and some groovy statement succulents AND a washing line that takes a full load and dries quickly in the afternoon sun (not to be underestimated when travelling with a budget carrier and managing minimal wardrobe!) Was a bit nervous about the heatpump as they can be noisy, but it's away from the bedrooms and timed just right so we didn't loose any sleep. The surprise second bathroom is a big plus. It's a pretty quiet street with plenty of parking despite being populated by car dealers, repair shops and spitting distance from the stadium, which is just as well, as the 2 good-sized bedrooms are absolute street frontage (which means they also get gentle morning sunshine filtered through a lovely street tree). We appreciated the little touches - fresh flowers, decent amount of milk and cereal, coffee (plunger) and enough crockery, cutlery and cleaning up equipment (dishwasher tablets, sponges, brushes etc) In summary Welcome Cottage is clearly well managed, well cleaned and well occupied and I would consider both short and longer stays.
