Peace and quiet, very clean, well equipped, good location, comfy
Proper thicker hand soap, more dw tablets and washing up liquid. Gate so dog does not run off. Outdoor bath or hot tub. Larger fridge with wine storage - we lost a bottle from the vineyard as fell out of the side door. Bit of mold in bathroom. A wipe clean table cloth as mats are a faff. Wine, cider or chocolate rather than flowers? Allow earlier check in time if ready without extra charge. More info in the house about places to go walk and eat and vet phone number. Host was very friendly but arrived 30mins early on our morning of departure - we left in a hurry and left things at property.
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2025
Steve was very helpful and gave thoughtful recommendations of where to explore. Very good food at the Blacksmiths Arms (need to book), and the Crown. Public footpaths about 100 metres from the house. Rabbits and pheasants came in the garden.
Steve helped by putting a bench across to enclose the garden. A more permanent solution would be good for children and dogs.
