    Particularly helpful when the lights tripped out one day. Lovely garden and nice views. Bad points-INDOOR POOL NOT HEATED IN WINTER, this was a massive disappointment for us as this had been one of the reasons we booked this particular house. We didn’t notice this in the listing although it is mentioned in the finer details. Our own fault for not checking the listing thoroughly but it should be more clear as the pool is mentioned several times. Main bedroom curtains are very light and thin and let in too much light, particularly the patio door as it’s near to the bed. Twin room beds were very squeaky. There are two internal doors connecting to the hosts property, one in the kitchen and one in the twin bedroom these were locked from the owners side and not an issue for us as a group of adults but may make some uncomfortable. Overall we really liked the property and would return another time of year when the pool is useable.

    Heather was very welcoming and nothing was too much hassle. Beautiful views and felt so so relaxed. A lovely pub over the road and great food too.

  • Simon

    It was a great experience and the children enjoyed the pool. The house was lovely and clean and felt very homely. The place is beautifully kept and well-designed for shared accommodation. All the bedrooms have an on-suite which made a huge difference. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots and pans which goes to show how much attention the owners have paid to the needs of their customers. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
