However, it wasnât particularly clean and two of the loo seats were loose, there was mould in the shower grouting and the sheets were stained, as were the towels. The initial view of the outside was alarming as the property sits behind a derelict pub and the front looks generally uncared for. Our main issue was the lack of welcome and hospitality by the owner, Debbie. We got off on the wrong foot I think because when we arrived we nipped out to get shopping and stock up for the week leaving our dogs behind - they are extremely well behaved and we bring our own camera to monitor them. I admit that I completely neglected to check that Debbie would be okay with this because I holiday several times a year in dog-friendly properties and have never had an issue before. We were gone for 2 hrs and 30 mins - the camera footage can verify and the dogs barked once when people were present on the driveway. We came back to be handed a screen shot of the property rules stating that dogs should not be left in the property by Debbieâs sister but no other conversation. I immediate text Debbie apologising for not checking and assuring her that I would respect her rules going forward - she responded 24 hrs later saying that it was distressing to hear the dogs bark âall dayâ - absolutely NOT our dogs. Debbie also told us that she had âfamilyâ staying in her âlaundry roomâ - a one bedroom dwelling just 20 feet from the door of the bungalow. Her âfamilyâ consisted of several people, who slept in the laundry room and also in a van on the driveway. They would bang the doors to the van as they went back and forth until quite late into the night (past 11pm) which woke our small children up on several occasions. We found menâs underwear in one of the bedrooms and pyjamas and a wallet in another bedroom with a driving licence in that seemed to match the identity of one of Debbieâs âfamilyâ members, (Photos available) and post and deliveries were made to the bungalow whilst we were there. When I told Debbie about the left belongings via text, I received no response at all. There was no cleaning equipment at the property either - we like to at least hoover at some point during the week - although Debbie did lend us her hoover on request. All in all, we felt generally unwelcome and it was a relief to leave at the end of the week

Literally had everything we could want for our weekend stay with family. We even had fresh hen and duck eggs in the basket when we arrived. Would definitely recommend.

There were only 2 adults and 1 small dog and it was really big and we could see how great it would be for larger groups. All mod cons, beds lovely and comfy,garden very large and well kept with plenty of patio furniture. Very peaceful surroundings with a nice walk up a lane right by the property for the dogs. Met Debbie the owner and she was very friendly. All in all a great holiday experience.
