Scar View - Getaway for Two - Ridgestone

Lovely location nicely appointed property

Everything was good , maybe a little more hanging for coats ect

Very clean and quiet location

Was a bit far out from the bigger towns so had to drive a bit but nice and quiet when we went back to relax at the bungalow

Amazing location, (mostly) enclosed garden for the dog, jacuzzi was good size, coffee machine great

Not told before arrival - barking dogs trying to get in to bedroom window, house is blocked off from main property which is clearly the owners/main tenants property, which gives you less privacy than it looks like you are getting on booking the property. Unable to smoke in garden meaning we had to restrain our dog from getting out the gate every time you want a cigarette. Main garden and next doors garden not fully seperated/fenced off, had to drag a bin and a fire log basket round the side to keep out dog in view as he was trying to go round and see the neighbours dogs in their front window. Also - hedge/bush at bottom right corner closest to our driveway has a massive hole at the corner which we had to block off as our dog managed to get in and nearly escaped. Overall 7/10, amazing location, good facilities, just not as private or as secure as its marketed as being. Also the owners have never replied to a message stating there are neighbouring people within the same property just through a blocked door and out the back of the bedroom, seems like they are dodging the fact. I would book again even knowing these factors, but if youre looking for a house to yourself with full privacy, its maybe not what you think. Had a great time nonetheless, local pub great for food and scout scar walk was fantastic.

Scar view was comfortable, warm and cosy. There are lots of throws and cushions to snuggle up with. The Hot tub was nice and easy to use. It’s a good size for a one bedroom property. Very short walk to a lovely local pub. It’s Next to a farm, so woke up to the sound of cows.

It’s looking a little tired inside and just a few minor things would make it perfect. Cupboard doors are not straight, the hands are bent on large clock in the lounge therefore it does not work, the bulb in the lounge light had blown, also the lights in the fireplace did not work. The oven was missing the + timer button and only had one shelf. The bed was comfortable, but not a king size. Frustratingly on 2 afternoons we experienced some shouting and swearing from the property next door, although the rest of the time it was peaceful.
