  • "Lovely property, the garden is amazing and the pictures in the listing dont do that and the lovely buildings near the hot tub justice A few small changes would make this property excellent."

    Overall the property was very good and we had a lovely stay and its location is excellent to see the local area. The following comments are not major issues but items that would make a stay here better in our opinion. Welcome pack - so all the appliances are explained and easier to use. Also we found that at least one of the frying pans did not work with the induction hob so may not be compatible. The george foreman grill looked either dirty or corroded when we went to use it so used the excellent air fryer instead. Heat/smoke alarm is badly sited in the kitchen and we found every time we opened the oven when cooking it went off. Games room with the football table in has a leak in the roof and smells of damp so we did not spend a lot of time in there. Batteries in two of the remotes needed changing to get the tv and sky working when we arrived. Had to buy these as we could not find any in the house. Outside security light near the front door did not come on fully but flashed so needs replacing or repairing. Its the only light at the front so meant it was very dark at night when going to the car or bins etc. The shower in the main bathroom is very good but with is quite dark with the curtain closed. Our kid did not use it due to this, but used one of the other showers instead. It would also be helpful if there was a good torch in the property to help navigate the large garden at night to get to the hot tub etc at the end of the garden. We used our phones but wasnt ideal.

  • "The house was amazing."

    The outdoor and garden area was great and really makes the house what it is. The house had everything you need. The only negative thing I have to say is the downstairs bedroom nearest to the door the guests said it had a musty smell but didn’t affect myself as the rest of the house was was great.

  • "What an absolute magical place this is!"

    From the moment you arrive you can’t quite imagine what is behind the doors. The house itself is beautifully furnished, the bedrooms so so cosy, very comfy beds and clean throughout. The garden is the hidden gem for us! Like a secret garden with never ending things situated, the outside bbq hut which we had marshmallows on the open fire, the outside bar seating area with wood fire stove and the hot tub at the end of the garden made this an added bonus! A family get together that will never be forgotten, making memories in such an amazing place! To note, the butchers in the village is one of the best we’ve been to for pies, meat, cakes you name it! Absolutely recommended for anyone looking to book in the area it will not disappoint!

  • "A lovely place to stay and wonderful for our multigenerational group."

    A garden of dreams with so many great facilities. The house was lovely but not enough chairs for our party and the crockery was not great lots with chips and scratches. For a house at this cost I would expect better. The house was also incredibly hot due to the glass frontage (which is beautiful) but would benefit from blinds or curtains. Generally clean but some furniture that may not be used was as much - such as the bedrooms were very dusty. However, overall it is wonderful house just some minor issues. The hire of the beach hut was a great bonus and added so much to our wonderful holiday.

    Thank you for your feedback, your comments have been noted. Property Owner

  • "Lovely property in a great location for exploring the area."

    Lovely and quiet with only normal countryside noises to be heard. Property is not as big as the photos suggest but it is still quite large and is exactly like the pictures. The single beds upstairs are very creaky and possibly need looking at. Facilities are great and well maintained. Hot tub was lovely. Gardens are very well maintained. Property was very clean except for the odd cobweb. Overall the property offers a lot in terms of facilities, plenty of games for families and children and a slide for smaller children in the garden.

    Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

  • "Another good find through Sykes!"

    - everything we needed was provided. It was full of surprises that the children (and adults)loved and thoroughly enjoyed & plenty of space for adults to relax and chill. Location was ideal for us both in the village and local area. We would love to return asap.

    Thank you for your lovely review. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay and would welcome you again happily. Property Owner
