Great stay in a beautifully presented cottage, highly recommend Melfort village. Second stay in the village first time in this cottage - fantastic

Having stayed at Melfort Village previously (but always in November), this stay in the spacious Beechwood House had the added benefit of longer days and better weather which added to the memories. The staff were great as usual, always helpful and informative. We used the swimming pool and Gunpowder Room facilities when we weren't out walking and exploring the glorious surrounding scenery. The views from the house were outstanding. Also, the fact that our dog was welcome made the stay more relaxing

The cottage sits above the village with its own private sloped garden - the view is fabulous. The cottage has a good size kitchen with good cookware, utensils etc. The lounge felt smaller but cozy, all in a slightly dated cottage style - but clean and well presented. The downstairs shower room and cloakroom has clearly been refurbished and was simple, clean and modern. Ithink the upstairs bathroom must be due for a refurb as it was very dated. The toilet was clearly fitted for a child’s height. The bedrooms are as expected, with the main bedroom feeling larger despite having a travel cot in. The swimming pool complex was excellent - unfortunately the hours of opening were not very helpful if you want to swim after putting children to bed, nor does it open early - i am sure that a range of different hours on different days might help to cater for different needs. The children’s playroom whilst unassuming was loved by our toddler and is open 24 hours a day - great for early risers. The laundry room - 2 washers and 2 dryers. Operated by tokens that give 1 hour of electricity meaning that machines stop mid cycle and on 2 occasions meant that machines were out of action when I visited. But staff assure me that they are looking into this as the system is new. The staff at reception were pleasant and helpful, I got the impression there was staff shortages but they still seemed to cope well.
We had a lovely stay, the weather could have been better - but the scenery as always was gorgeous.

The property was rented to use on a "bed and breakfast" basis as we were spending most of our time with friends in another Melfort property. The accommodation was excellent: a spacious kitchen/dining area which could be divided from the living room with sliding doors; a reasonably sized living room; 2 generous bedrooms; an upstairs bathroom and a downstairs shower room. Altogether, a very comfortably sized and equipped 2 bedroom unit.
The only criticism concerns the usage/cost of electricity. As we were only spending limited periods of time in the house and were only using 1 bedroom, significant efforts were made to set each of the electric radiators and underfloor heaters appropriately. Despite this, the charge for the week was well above the average indicated by Melfort administration and certainly higher than had been anticipated. Given the highly adjustable nature of the heating units, I suggest that much more information and guidance should be given, over and above the basic operation manuals.
