The location is highly praised for its tranquility, beautiful surroundings, and opportunities for walks. It is described as remote yet accessible, providing a peaceful retreat without being too far from local attractions.
Guests found the beds comfortable and the property spacious and cosy. The presence of underfloor heating and en-suite bathrooms added to the comfort level, although some suggested additional reading lamps would be beneficial.
The facilities, including hot tubs, a games room, and ample space, were well-received. However, some guests reported minor maintenance issues like worn kitchenware, loose door handles, and the need for jet washing near the hot tubs.
The owner's thoughtfulness is evident through gestures like a welcome hamper and friendly interactions. While such gifts are appreciated, they are a personal touch and may not be a consistent offering for all stays.
