Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests found Foxes Den to be clean and well-maintained, with immaculate bedrooms, kitchen, and bathroom. However, a few mentioned dust in less-frequented corners and behind furniture, suggesting room for improvement in thoroughness.
The property is appreciated for its quiet, rural location with easy access to local towns and attractions. Some confusion over the exact location was mentioned, but overall, the setting is seen as a positive aspect.
Guests generally found the property comfortable, with firm beds and a cosy atmosphere. However, some noted that the space might feel cramped for larger groups, and the bathroom size posed challenges for those with mobility issues.
The property is well-equipped with a large TV and dishwasher, but the lack of WiFi and some maintenance issues like a non-working dishwasher were drawbacks for some guests. The provision of a secure gate and ample parking were positives.
While guests mentioned friendly and helpful hosts, there is no consistent mention of gifts or special touches that would fall under 'thoughtfulness'. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.
