Happy wanderers
We stayed here over Christmas, overall a very comfortable house. An absolutely perfect location if you really want peace & quiet. The oil heating was much needed and appreciated, as was the log burner, made for some lovely cosy evenings. The sky TV with so many channels was great. On the whole the kitchen was reasonably well equipped, although a potato masher /ricer and some small cereal bowls would be a good addition. We will not hesitate to return.

House was very comfortable and well equipped. High end amenities. Loved it. My only issue would be lack of communication. Caretaker did not respond to phone calls or WhatsApp texts until 6:50pm. We just happened to find keys under front door mat. Other than that, all good.
