The house was perfectly kitted out for families with young kids. There was such a great range of board games which keep us entertained on the odd rainy day.

Couldnât find the walk in electric shower switch on are a couple of days. Looks like it was purposely hidden as when we did find it shower thermostat obviously broken. Scorch hit or freezing cold. Very dangerous. This was brought up in the Summer in quotes from other guests. Clearly the issue has not been fixed. Other than this we had a lovely stay.

Being opposite the Pityme Inn was a great advantage. The back grass could have done with a cut as it was really too long to eat out. Otherwise it had very comfortable beds with an excellent kitchen.
