The bedrooms are beautifully presented, with quality linens and large beds, although the pillows could be replaced as they were a little flat or lumpy. The accomodation is perfectly acceptable for a night or two but the lack of wardrobes and bathroom surface, etc, would be difficult for longer stays. The bedrooms would benefit from a TV, as would the kitchen. There is a TV snug with a three seater sofa and a four-five seater sofa in the kitchen, otherwise there is no living space but the kitchen has a huge table to sit around. It would benefit from a slightly smaller table to allow more seating. There was only one bin bag and no coffee pods for the nespresso machine, only one tea towel and no oven gloves. Two of the rooms had fly infestations. Cottages.com told us we could have late checkout but the cleaner turned up at normal check out time which was disappointing and meant for a hasty exit. The cleaner and inspector claimed to know nothing about this, despite us calling the owner ourselves several times to only get a "mobile is turned off" message, several text messages, and cottages.com saying they'd emailed everyone several times. This is concerning had there been a problem with the accomodation because we wouldn't have been able to reach the owner. That said, the place was perfect for a weekend away with 17 of us. It really is a beautiful place and I would recommend it to anyone. If they acted on this feedback, it'd be 5 star without a doubt!

Quiet location in very remote area - 15 mins drive away from anywhere. Wedding venue and house is right next to preparation room, so you may be disturbed with visitors or tours during the stay. Although sleeps 16, there is no space for lounging all together. The kitchen space is totally absorbed by the table and the lounge fits 4 on the sofa.Kitchen has an induction hob that only recognises 1 usable frying pan - in need of new equipment as cooking for 16 people with existing equipment is borderline impossible. Although didn’t use, bbq looked poorly looked after.Bedrooms are very comfortable.Check-in and check out was easy and smooth.

Fantastic property! 15 of us stayed here for 2 nights as a surprise tor my dads 60th, ages 1 to 60 and everyone loved it! Plenty of room for everyone. Great presence as you pull up and beautiful gardens, the kids loved all of the secure outdoor space and the cows across the fence! All of the bedrooms were spacious and very well decorated. Minor downside would be not a lot of comfy seating space for the size of our group other than sitting round the huge table. Would definitely book again!
