Overall a lovely house to stay. We had 4 generations of the family 8 adults and 2 kids (and 2 dogs).. loads of space for everybody.. Enclosed garden with games room was well used and the central location made it easy to get out and about.Having a shop 2 minutes away was also convenient. We had supper at he Dorrington Horseshoes pub, which was excellent, friendly staff and the food was awesome. We had a couple of niggles with the property that were quickly sorted by Andy and Sian (hosts) so didn't detract from the holiday. For balance there is a bit of traffic noise in the morning.. but after a couple of days we hardly noticed.All and all a very enjoyable stage, big rooms, big comfy beds and a pub less than 5 minutes away.. A great week had by all... we would recommend and will likely return.
