Very clean. Beautiful views. Comfortable bed. Unfortunately the smell of damp was quite evident as soon as we arrived. The owners had provided a dehumidifier but the damp still affected my husbands chest and sadly we had to go home a day early. The owners very kindly reimbursed us for this. If the damp could be sorted, then this place would be a perfect getaway

I asked why? because damp or mould can cause problems. Had no response from Sykes or the owner about it, but I feel some people need to know this before booking. The hot tub took a minimum of three hours to heat, and still didnât get hot enough for us. Never had an issue before but could have been because in cold weather it just doesnât work as well. The cowl was missing off the chimney too. Very disappointed with the hot tub and wonât book a property with a wood fired tub again. The WiFi was off more than it was on during our stay and there is no phone signal so bear this in mind. Aside from the issues we had a lovely time, the area is absolutely beautiful
