Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with some guests finding the property clean and others experiencing issues with dust and unclean beds. The lack of consistent cleanliness has been noted.
The property's location is highly praised for its proximity to Alton Towers and local amenities, as well as for the lovely views and village setting. However, access can be challenging for larger vehicles.
Guests appreciate the property's warmth and spaciousness, but comfort is compromised by a lack of seating, insufficient pillows, and heating issues. Some rooms also lack adequate furnishings.
Facilities are generally adequate, with some guests satisfied with the amenities provided. However, there are several mentions of missing kitchen utensils, unclear instructions for appliances, and a need for fireplace tools.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

The cabin was clean and tidy, exactly as shown in the photos. However, it was very cold and there was no way to turn the heating on. We contacted the host, who reasured us that someone would come to sort it the next day, but unfortunately that didnt happen. There were only two small pieces of firewood provided, which lasted about 20 minutes. For the price paid, we expected proper heating or at least enough logs to keep the place warm.

Fantastic break away for an Alton Towers base as it’s only 2miles from the park. House was very welcoming and set out to our number of people. The Bulls head pub at the end of the road was really great food and also a take away option which was good. The house is at the top of a very steep hill but all good. Would go back for sure.
