Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is frequently described as spotless, indicating a high level of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.
The location is well-regarded due to the nearby pub, play area, and the farm, making it a great spot for visitors, though one review mentioned a concern for dog owners due to a local cat.
Guests find the property warm and comfortable, with plenty of space for large groups and family games, comfortable beds, and a hot tub that adds to the comfort level.
The facilities are generally praised, including the well-equipped kitchen and the extra towels for the hot tub. However, one mention of a damp smell in the master bedroom suggests a minor issue with maintenance.
The hosts are commended for their thoughtful touches, such as welcome hampers and Easter eggs. While these gifts are warmly received, it should be noted that such gestures are at the hosts' discretion and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

We very much appreciated the goodies to welcome us- flowers, bread, eggs, wine and milk . Theo was helpful when we needed him and our family loved the hot tub.
