  • "This is a lovely flat."

    Equipped to a very high standard. Lots of extra blankets and throws if you need them. Warm and cosy but also lots of room. We loved the extra décor touches and it is clear the owners have a good eye for detail. The flat is very close to the centre of Oakham and near to most of the town's amenities. Would stay there again no problem.

    Everything has been perfect from start to finish. The apartment is only a few yards from the high street with everything to hand, including the car parking space provided nearby. Shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants within a few yards. We thoroughly enjoyed the local market stalls on Saturday morning purchasing local produce to take home. Tanya and Neil are exceptional hosts and nothing is too much trouble. We will definitely return at some point.

    Hi Michael, Hope you enjoyed your fishing trips at the local coarse fisheries and bagged up :) Sorry your 93 yr old companion found the few internal steps difficult (re your 75% comfort rating) but we have tried to explain and display this in the property description / photographs so hope at least you were aware of it.

  • "We had a most comfortable and enjoyable stay at 2 The Maltings despite the weather."

    The owners had thought of everything, and created a very welcoming homely holiday experience, we would struggle to fault it. We loved the decor and the quirky touches. They may be new to the holiday letting business, but they are Very Good! (Why only a 9 to the 'would you recommend' question? Simply because of the internal steps that would mean it wasn't suitable for everyone) Thank you for sharing your 'home' with us.

  • "This was, without a doubt, the best equipped holiday accommodation I have stayed in and was a real home-from-home."

    Even though I was working, I felt really relaxed in the environment and thoroughly welcomed and put at ease by the hosts who were extremely responsive and helpful. It is worth making visitors aware that there are a couple of steps at random places in the flat, though these are well lit with motion sensors. I wanted for nothing during my stay. Would give more than five stars if it were possible.

    Lorraine, thank you so much for your complimentary review and constructive feedback. Thank you Lorraine. We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay.
