Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the property being 'very clean and tidy', indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The property is described as having a 'quiet location' with 'good access to local tourist attractions', suggesting a favourable location.
Multiple reviews highlight the property as 'very comfortable' and 'relaxing', reflecting a high level of comfort.
Facilities like a 'beautiful garden' and heated pool are mentioned, but there's a suggestion for more crockery and weather affected the use of the pool, hence the score is not perfect.
While the owners are praised for their welcome, there is no specific mention of gifts, so it is not possible to assess thoughtfulness in this context.

It was very comfortable, clean and well equipped and in a lovely quiet location, yet handy to the coast, countryside and city. The owners, who live on site, were very kind and helpful. I would thoroughly recommend staying here and hope to be back again. Thank you.

The Loft is accessed via a few outside steps, so is not suitable for those with mobility issues. We were delighted with the layout and modern equipment, including underfloor heating, induction hob, cooker, dishwasher and waste disposal unit. The whole living/dining/kitchen area is open plan with original beams in the ceiling. The owner clearly has impeccable taste as the decor, in soft grey tones, together with various art paintings was aesthically easy on the eye. The bedroom with en-suite shower room was comfortable. The owner had greeted us with a bottle of red wine, coffee and tea, which was much appreciated, when we had yet to locate local shops. There was plenty of information about local walking and amentities. The only slight niggle was there did not seem to be recycling operating, so we were left to pile all recycables in a bag at the door before we left, ready for disposal. Richard the owner had advised us he was away from the site and there would be someone to hand if we needed any help. Instructions on the use of the cooker would be helpful as for us, not used to induction cooking, it took a few attempts to get it right. Overall we would highly recommend this property for a couple without children.
