The kitchen was superbly equipped with all new baking trays and roasting dishes - which given we were cooking Christmas dinner was a blessing. I loved that the living space is all-in-one: means that if you are the cook, you're not away from the action. Lovely walks around, too, and it was a treat to walk out into the yard and sea the horses. Huge thanks as well for your huge kindness in helping to recover Peter Bear! My daughter has had him since her first Christmas, so we are very grateful for your help in recovering him again

After a 14 hours drive from The Netherlands we found a very dirty property with dirty carpets, food left in oven & dishwasher, no cleaning done prior to arriving and all beds were dirty with blood stains on the sheets, terrible. We could not stay due to how dirty it was and left the property within two hours of arriving to a hotel. My legal representative has recommended we seek compensation for the hotel costs. I am still waiting for a full refund. Can you please inform me when I will receive the refund to my account.

It was way more spacious that any of us expected and the grant setting was such a surprise. Excellent!
