Had the best holiday the property is amazing and the children loved it. The grounds are well kept and very pretty. Just to note a couple of the paving slabs around the property are loose so be careful with children. The property had everything you could need and is a short drive from great days out. Will deffo book again thank you

Great location to unwind and switch off. The hot tub was lovely to relax in, we had to turn the temperature down because we were in the middle of a heatwave, but it still did the job wonderfully as we were overlooking the pond and bird filled trees. We woke up to them every morning it was great, no other noise whatsoever.Summer house exactly as described, it has enough equipment to cook, bbq, etc should you not want to leave and eat out. There are many great eating establishments a short drive away, or long walk if you prefer.The basics such as washing up liquid, sponges, cloths, brushes and t.towels are provided. Decor and furnishings are probably considered a little dated but absolutely in keeping with the age and type of property. It wouldn't look right to be modern and minimalist. If we had to pick just one thing to possibly request would be a lighter duvet in the main bedroom for the summer. Again, we were in middle of 30° heatwave so whatever was provided would probably be too much.Hosts just perfect.
