We stayed here during the first weekend of the festival and it worked really well ... we only stayed 3 nights but could have easily stayed longer. The house is very comfortable and spacious and staying here is a real experience as very different from the standard semi in which we live! I think it's important to like cats (which we do!) as they are around and we fed them while we were there.
It was pretty quick to get into town and we soon got the hang of the buses. The independent shops on the high street were only open one day we were there as it was a bank holiday but were lovely and the sainsbury's was very handy and open late every day. Overall would totally recommend.
