  • "The property was beautiful inside and out."

    Surprisingly spacious. Inside is tastefully decorated, immaculately clean and fitted out with excellent quality up to date fixtures and fittings. The kitchen was wonderful. For cooking there is a choice of the fabulous range oven, a double Ninja air fryer and a microwave. Importantly the range ovens need the time setting before they will work. It doesn't need to be the correct time. It would have been helpful if the clock was left on but fortunately Google came to our assistance. There are more utensils than I've ever seen before in one kitchen! Amazing. If you're wanting to use the TV you'll need to remember your login details for all the channels. Outdoors the enclosed large back garden is equally wonderful. The patio area is a sun trap so even in cooler weather, if the sun is out, it's beautiful. The dog was perfectly safe to be free wandering around doing 'dog' things. The local dog friendly pub, The Hare and Hounds is 10 minutes walk away and predominantly a food pub, although you're made just as welcome for drinks only. If you want to eat there you really do need to book. It's busy. If you go in during the afternoon/early evening we found most tables reserved from around 6pm. It's a limited nice menu but not a pub grub cheap night out. The village store is well stocked and the staff are very helpful. Out and about there's plenty to see and do for all ages and tastes. We felt honoured to have been able to stay there. Other than the oven the only thing we would have appreciated was a pint of milk for our arrival. Tea bags and coffee were available (thank you) but no milk. Not that it's an essential by any means but if your arrival is after the local shop closes remember to take some with you.

    Thanks so much for your lovely feedback, much appreciated. Unfortunately if the cooker switch gets turned off on the wall, the clock has to be reset but we’ve now left the instructions and will add an additional note to leave the switch on. Look forward to welcoming you again. Many thanks Property Owner

  • "We loved staying at Beech Brae."

    We felt comfortable and relaxed from walking in the door. The layout was ideal,spacious and nice furnishings. The Garden was Beautiful and Big ,our two dogs loved it. It has lovely views while sitting on the patio,so peaceful. Nice Area very quiet and we felt safe. There was everything we needed. We only used one bed and it was very comfy. Ideally located for exploring the Lakes. We would love to stay again in the future.

    Thanks so much for your lovely feedback and glad you and the dogs had a great stay! We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner
