Modern apartment with stunning views near the Pavilion Gardens and Opera House. 3rd floor with no lift so a few stairs to climb. The flat is beautifully presented and self contained but as we strive to be as honest as possible we have to point out that the stairway carpets are old and worn and need replacing but unfortunately this is beyond our control. The space The flat is very central and right on the market place by the town hall. Surrounded by pubs and restaurants and a couple of nightclubs. The Opera House is approximately 500yards. Bus stop and taxi rank outside. Pay and display parking on the doorstep. This is a busy place so ideal for a city break away but maybe not a tranquil escape. Guest access There is a key pad outside at the back of the porch below the window. We will contact you with your code before arrival. Pay Parking is outside, pay and display or alternatively free parking is just a couple of minutes walk on Hartington Road, you will find this behind Sainsburys by the side of the church. We now have a parking permit which we can offer to guests but this still means you have to pay between 12 noon and 3pm daily except Sunday which is free. Other things to note Town centre, excellent views and location. 3rd floor access by stairs.
The apartment had everything necessary, except a working elevator. As we were on an extended tour, we had three suitcases which had to be carried up many, many flights of stairs. We tried to fit a key into a lock on a door which we later learned was a "decorative", non-working knob. The decor was lovely, the location was ideal, and I am sure if we were hikers, this apartment would have been a fine fit, but not for old people or people with heavy luggage.
