For the most part it was clean and comfortable and had plenty of space. The chimney was leaking rain and so the wood-burner was rusty and unusable, and had a puddle under it. The main problem was the shortage of kitchen equipment. There was not enough cutlery or bowls for a multi-course meal and snacks, so we were forever washing up, and there are no soup spoons. The cooking utensils are flimsy and not up to the job. There were only two small saucepans and a casserole, so cooking Christmas lunch was a challenge. The owners had thoughtfully left us a disposable roasting tin for a turkey (which we didn't use as we are vegetarians) but otherwise the kitchen was inadequate and I was very pleased that we had taken some essential equipment with us. It would be fine if you only wanted to make breakfast there and then go out for the day, but you can't really cook for a big family. The pub in the village is excellent.

The kitchen floor was âstickyâ underfoot at all times. Possibly itâs been cleaned previously with a solution not meant for that particular type of flooring? It possibly needs replacing. The house was quite cold on our arrival and no instructions were available re the heating controls but after a call to Sykes, this was resolved very quickly.
