Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers are unanimous in their appreciation of the property's cleanliness, often describing it as spotless. This suggests a high standard of hygiene and care.
The location is frequently described as stunning, peaceful, and idyllic, with beautiful views and wildlife. Its proximity to a local pub and Banbury adds to its appeal.
Comfort is well-regarded, with mentions of sumptuous beds and pillows, and a cosy atmosphere. However, one mention of an uncomfortable mattress suggests a slight deduction in the score.
Facilities like the hot tub, barbecue, and well-equipped kitchen are often mentioned positively. Maintenance appears to be good, though a suggestion for a washing line indicates room for improvement.
While the reviews reflect a high level of satisfaction with the host's attentiveness and the provision of amenities, there is no specific mention of gifts, thus a score cannot be provided.
