Overall I would recommend the only issue, one evening was quite cold and we couldn't increase the heat on the electric radiator.

Excellent location for several National Trust properties and good walking routes in the area.We did not receive the advertised welcome pack.Information folder could do with updating and a potato peeler c would have been useful.

We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay at the loft except, for some reason, a frying pan. I appreciate we could have asked for one but we were only there for a short stay. My other complaint is that I did not like the stairing up to the loft from outside. When it was wet it was slippery and so when carrying anything in our hands we didn't feel very safe on them. The location was good for us and we enjoyed our stay
