Guest review
- Review from...: Airbnb: "Rhubarb retreat is very comfortable and in a perfect location. It was very cosy as even in July the weather was not warm. The beds were very comfortable. The shower was brilliant. It was lovely to have a welcoming gift of bread and milk and some fruit from the garden. The lounge/dining area was perfect for us and with the huge TV screen we could watch TV if we wanted to. It’s a 10 minute walk into the city so we could park the car and just forget about it. It’s a beautiful and cosy cottage." From Avril on 15th July 2024
