    Kitchen not very well equipped with cutlery No washing up liquid provided Small fridge, no freezer Entrance dirty with bird droppings No welcome pack eg bread/milk/wine/coffee - nice touch provided by most places

  • Tarsem

    The facilities were good, clean indoors, comfortable furniture to relax on after a busy day outdoors. Parking on the property was perfect. Overall my family of 5 stayed comfortably we made full use of the modern kitchen & large bathroom there were adequate number of bedrooms with enough storage cupboards and drawers. The property is around 25-30 mins drive from the shops and restaurants for anyone looking to stay here. Only one negative feedback. The porch outside the entrance could have been cleaner alot of bird poo on the floor before entry into the property.

    This has clearly been an issue for some time as the bath panel was swelling and paint coming off. A small detail but will have a detrimental effect on the look of the bathroom quickly. Bed linen and towels of good quality and immaculate. All beds very comfortable. Electric heating worked well. I do feel some logs should be provided for the first night for simplicity for late arriving guests. Wi-Fi good and fast, well equipped kitchen. We enjoyed our stay very much.
