Games room was great fun, lovely area to bbq overlooking the lake. A little later check out would be better as 9:30 in self catering is simply too early.

Well decorated and very comfortable. You can see the owners take pride in their accommodation. Part of a holiday cottage complex with shared laundry, hoover and garden. Garden not enclosed so not ideal for dogs if your dog is prone to running off. VERY steep wooden stairs up to kitchen and living area. No loo upstairs, so if you have mobility problems, itâs not ideal. Very comfy armchairs and sofa in living area. One light in the living room is on the blink. Itâs working intermittently. Beds very comfy but pillows too hard. Loo seats not very comfy either. Shared garden is beautifully planted and well kept. Lovely lake with a swan and other wildfowl. Communal BBQs could do with a bit of TLC as they were not enticing enough to cook on. Very comfy outdoor seating. The Bird Viewing gazebo on the edge of the lake is dilapidated and covered in ants, so not usable. Lovely thought though. The pool table in the games room has got a large dip in the middle!

Lovely stay in a tranquil location. Returning in September , and will book for next year. Lots of thought has been put into this development, very friendly and welcoming but also quite private. Thoroughly recommend.
