We really enjoyed our stay in Strugglers Retreat. What a wonderful cottage. I particularly loved the kitchen, which is superb and the excellent green garden space with view of mature trees beyond.

We had a good week at the property. Parking space was a real bonus. The property was in a very good and convenient location. We never got to meet the hosts but the welcome pack and communication were good. I would have like to give the property 5 stars however the bathroom needs a fan as the condensation gathered in the windows upstairs and the window seat frames were showing signs of moulding. We also thought the sprung mattress could do with being replaced but we know mattresses are individual preferences. Also whilst the kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment much of it had to be washed before we could use it as it had been put away with food residue on it. We are sure that the property will remain a favourite with those booking .
