It has become a little care worn in places which is no surprise having had many people stay over the years. We found the place clean tidy and comfortable however on removing the bed linen we werenât impressed with the poor state of the pillows duvet and mattress protector which we feel all need renewing being stained and very worn. This is we feel the one thing that lets the property down hence the 4 stars

Didn't want to bother the contact unless urgent. We arrived after a long journey from Oxford to a COLD house. The cleanliness and VERY welcome fizz and Welsh cakes (also tea, coffee, milk) told us that someone had been in recently, so heating could have been switched on. Thereafter ~ lovely. Especially watching the bird life. A relevant bird book would have been a great asset. Everything we needed. The turkey tin was a really thoughtful addition, and the decorations a delight. Plus, thank you for the OS map. Heron would be wonderful for a spring/summer/autumn holiday - living on the terrace. Star rating only 4 because of cold arrival.
