    We loved the space and comfort. It was lovely and clean. Parking and location were perfect. The kitchen was fab for several of us to work in. Lots of space for 13 of us to spread out in and a table and chairs that we could comfortably sit around was really appreciated. Games around the log burner was lovely. Lovely walks on the doorstep. Couldn't have asked for more. Small point - the oven door doesn't close properly which affects cooking times. Would recommend and come again.

    Perfect for pur group. There wasn't a cafetiere which would have been good. Also the gas oven door isn't great at closing, might be worth putting a note near it so people take extra care to shut it properly

    I say this, as the weather could have been a lot kinder to us. We were left a very nice welcome pack, that contained most of the 'immediate essentials.' The house is very well presented and had pretty much everything we could have wanted. I stayed in the ground floor bedroom/apartment, which was large. The furnishings in this room are a little bit tired, but perfectly adequate. The shower has some black mould on the seals. My one big problem with this room was the tap in the sink. It took around 5 minutes for any hot water to come through and when it did, there was just the smallest gap between cold and scorching hot. This needs fixing. The lounge and dining room are very nice, as were the other bedrooms, although one shower was not working. One pleasant call with the Owner was enough for this to be fixed. I would recommend the rental of this property to anyone.
