  The week just spent here was a family 'get-together' to celebrate our Golden Wedding.

  Generally, we enjoyed a very pleasant week in Dorset, in this spacious property which catered extremely well for the needs of our group. It afforded privacy when needed (particularly for one member who had to work digitally 'from home' throughout the week). The property was spotlessly clean and internally, in excellent decorative order. Having three bath/ shower rooms was a real bonus as was the ample off-road parking. The beds were extremely comfortable. Skylark is beautifully located in a quiet residential close but with a feeling of peaceful solitude once through the gates. The views of hills from both back and front and of the sea to the south were lovely and the little white gate was frequently used to access some stunningly scenic walks (and runs) in the hills or when heading down to the Kings Arms or farm shop. One or two minor grumbles... On arrival, we had to play a game of 'hunt the key safe'. Fortunately, it was eventually located without the need to call the given phone number but a bit of guidance in the pre-visit email would have been helpful. A folding clothes airer would have been a useful addition as it could have been placed inconspicuously outside for helping to dry damp towels etc. Mindful of the £100 penalty for incorrect recycling, we were slightly annoyed to discover the previous 'residents' had left a selection of non-recyclable items in the green-topped bin which, in order to avoid being penalised for the sins of the previous guests, necessitated the rather unpleasant task of us having to re-sort the contents into the correct bin. It was felt that one or two bits of guidance in the welcome pack were due an update. Generally though, a lovely property which we would be happy to recommend to others.

  The kitchen is well equipped and with the three bathrooms there were plenty of facilities for eight of us (6 adults and 2 children) The garden allows plenty of space for safe play although it is rather untamed.

  Highly recommend the pub down the road, take a torch if returning in the dark. Although we generally enjoyed our stay the following issues need a mention: 1. It was not easy to locate and operate the key safe and we were jolly glad it wasn't raining given that it took about 10 minutes. On leaving we couldn't operate the safe and put the keys through the letter box. 2. E V. (Electric Vehicle charging) was a major reason we chose 'Skylark' and it proved to be a pair of 13 amp sockets without an adaptor lead. We travel with a charging lead but not an adaptor lead since we have have a charging socket at home. The person I contacted said he didn't have an EV and didn't know anything about them and had installed the sockets. This was a disappointment and frustration. At least insert a note for people to bring the necessary charging adaptor in the information. 3 The wardrobes had a rather musty aroma which penetrated clothes hanging in them. Keep your clothes in your suitcase if you can. 4. The en-suite wet room shower made most of the floor wet and would benefit from having an enclosure. 5. The television, as mentioned in other reviews, is unique and not intuitive!

  Thank you Mary for letting us stay in your amazing house. We have all enjoyed being here for the week in glorious weather. The house has everything you need for a holiday stay and its location in Woodbridge is ideal for walking into town or the waterfront. We did so much in our week and ate in some amazing places, we went to Sutton Hoo, Framlingham Castle, the Suffolk Punch Trust, Adnams brewery, Southwold, Aldeburgh. We went to play foot golf at Fynn-valley golf club and did the crazy golf at Ufford (park) golf club. So many places to eat! We chose A Listers (mainly for the cocktails!), the Boathouse (amazing food!), Blue Salt, had Chinese takeaway, fish and chips and I cannot recommend the afternoon tea (or the cocktails!) at the Crown enough, it was outstanding. We would love to come again as there is so much more to see in Woodbridge and the surrounding areas. From the Taylors plus Franks from Milton Keynes

  This property is fabulous. Having 3 beds & baths it's perfect for 3 couples. It has a large living area with large, very comfortable sofas and a large dining table. There are also other a couple of other seating areas if you want to 'escape'. It is immaculately kept and the kitchen is fully stocked for cooking at home. The location is great with lots of nice pubs, restaurants & cafes within 5 walking minutes. (The one thing I'd point out is most of Woodbridge eateries seemed to be closed either Sunday & Monday or Monday & Tuesday.). If you want days out from Woodbridge, the area is full of interesting places. For both local & further afield, the owner has left files & files of recommendations. Equally so on the house itself - there are manuals & help for all the appliances etc. Mary the owner, has really gone above & beyond to ensure you enjoy your stay at The Old Warehouse

  Lovely cottage set in the beautiful Dee Valley - the views from all windows and the patio were truly breathtaking.

  The weather was very kind to us every day and so we were able to enjoy all the area had to offer. We also enjoyed the patio every evening - listening to the birds, taking in the view, and even got to watch a hot air balloon glide over the valley. You can just about see the aqueduct from the property and enjoyed using the binoculars provided to look at the canal boats crossing. A great base for exploring in and around Llangollen - great walks, lovely towns, and a good touring base as close to the main A5. The drive way looked like it may have been a problem for many previous people, and we had a couple of stressful days whilst we worked out the best way in and out - in the end we forward parked in the driveway and then reversed out, getting a dab hand at the manoeuvre by the end of our stay! We would definitely recommend, and wouldn’t think twice about staying again!
