Barry
00 pm to a very cold house as the timer was set to come on at 6.00 pm and we could not get the heating turned on until Michelle came much later to show us how to advance the timer Not a very warm welcome Surely the timer should be set for heating to come on a few hours before check in?? Also the description on the main page of the description is incorrect as it notes there are 5 bathrooms whereas there are only 3 shower rooms and one shared family bathroom Possibly the downstairs cloakroom is included as a bathroom which is not correct Also regarding bathrooms, one leaked whenever it was used making a large puddle on the ground floor which was a health hazard When we reported this to Michelle she said it was something she was aware of but there were no immediate plans to fix it until there was a void rental week in December! We had problems with the TV reception and this was not rectified until the third day of our stay A tip for the cleaners is that they should pull out the beds and clean underneath as there is a thick layer of dust under some of them A set of sharp kitchen knives would be useful as none of those provided could cut anything Plenty of wine glasses though and the welcome cake provided was appreciated The view was lovely and attention to the above could realise the full potential of this property

The rooms were a good size and very useful to have 3 en-suites and a main bathroom with 11 of us staying. The kitchen was lovely and big with a huge table to all sit together for family meals, and was very well equipped with plenty of crockery and pans etc. The views and sunsets were wonderful! The owner, Michelle was very friendly and the cake and other goodies were very welcome.

The house was perfectly stocked, including wood for the fire - which was much welcome. Michelle was very friendly and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed for our stay, high chair and extra towels/beds. The views outside this property are fantastic, we even did a circular 2 mile walk from the property which was lovely to see the surrounding area. We will definitely consider coming back, and if youâre wondering whether to book, you should! The reviews saying the property is cold, it wasnât too bad. The hearing comes on twice daily (so far in Sept) and this was enough with the fire too, we werenât too cold. Kitchen very well equipped with utensils and pans, enough to do a successful roast for 14 people! Big fridge freezer and separate little living room/games room for younger ones. A perfect home away from home!
