The majority of reviews commend the property for its immaculate cleanliness, with several guests highlighting the tidiness and well-kept decor. One review mentions the house being 'shabby and quite grubby', but this appears to be an outlier.
Guests are pleased with the property's location, noting its peaceful setting and good access to local amenities and country walks. The proximity to both Cornwall and Devon attractions is also appreciated, although one review mentioned a preference for a more secluded location.
Comfort is frequently praised, with guests finding the property homely and the beds comfortable. The spaciousness for large families and multiple bathrooms are noted as positives. However, a few reviews mention a lack of hanging space and mirrors in bedrooms.
Facilities like the hot tub, patio, and well-equipped kitchen are well-received. However, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a broken garden umbrella and hot tub cover, and a leaking tap, which suggest room for improvement.
The thoughtfulness of the hosts is a standout feature, with many guests mentioning generous welcome packs and treats for both humans and dogs. It should be noted that while such gifts are frequently mentioned, they are not guaranteed for every stay.
