Thank you so much for our stay here, we had the best time! It was a very private location and perfect for families enjoying a getaway in the countryside. There was a slight issue with the hot tub which was rectified very quickly and we made use of it, it was lovely! The rooms are spacious and well decorated…. We loved the separate little snug with the sofa for some quiet time if it was needed. We even spotted a barn owl and some bats. Gareth was lovely and helpful and we hope to come back again soon!

The location was beautiful, and it’s a gorgeous large house. However we felt there were issues that we weren’t being picky about. To start with on our first night we went to turn the tv on and it just wouldn’t, changed the batteries in the remote and it wasn’t that. Turns out nearly every time we used it we’d have to manually reset it to get it to work, by the end of the holiday only half of the tv picture worked so it’s definitely on its way out. When having our first meal, we pulled out the chairs and there were still bits of the previous guests dinner underneath the table. The bins had left over ice lolly packets from previous guests also. The one airer only had 3 legs meaning it wouldn’t stand up, and the floors were so filthy our socks were black and I had to go out of my way to buy floor wipes and clean them myself. It’s not the kind of thing you want to be dealing with when you go on holiday with the purpose to relax. The hot tub bar broke in the wind and Gareth came out fast and efficiently to fix it, and did a great job. I think that the change over between each guest is so fast that there is a lack of care to clean in properly.

I've stayed at this property on two occasions with family and have been blown away by the quality and comfort the place. It's a spacious and calm space to unwind, relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Its location is also perfect as a base to explore the local area. Gareth, who manages the property has also been friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a stay here!
