What our customers say about their holidays

• Maimoonah - Verified booking

  On arriving one of the main rooms which we required was locked.

  After calling the owner he explained they only arranged the amount of beds we booked for. I explained although certain beds were booked some families preferred to stay in separate rooms. He agreed on opening the room but did not supply any bedding. I explained we are happy to have put the bedding on ourselves but he said it was too ‘costly’. I thought this was ludicrous considering we paid almost £6000 for a holiday- it was not made clear on booking that only the amount of rooms used would be unlocked/bed sheets provided. In large groups sometimes more people decide to come and some drop out. The second issue was that there limited supplies of toilet roll and it was very much a nuisance having to remove our own bedding, emptying bins and cleaning the whole place prior to leaving to the standard in which it was prior to us attending. Most of our trip we were concerned about having our deposit taken and therefore it sucked the fun out of our trip. Especially being the organizer it was extremely stressful. The BBQ was very old and the wood was kept outside in the rain so making a fire or BBQ - we had to get most of our supplies. We have attended many other places in large groups but never had to clean as much as we did. On a positive note, the place itself is very large and the games room was lovely, the kitchen had everything needed plus more. The owner did allow us to attend earlier and leave slightly late.

  We really enjoyed our stay and the kids loved the pools and the space they had to play hide and seek.

  The facilities were ok, made use of the washing machines,kitchen was fully equipped but wasn't big enough for the amount of people during our stay but we made it work. Some of the beds were uncomfortable and no showers on the 3rd floor was a bit of a problem but we just used some of the other spare rooms. The house is in need of some repair especially the kitchen and bathrooms ie new shower curtains wouldn't of gone a miss. The amount of space this property has is brilliant for everyone including the dogs. The maintenance guy was very friendly and came when needed to clean the outdoor pool. The roads to and from the house are poor to say the least with pot holes and narrow roads but that is Devon and Cornwall. Bit out of the way of the local beaches and pubs as you can't walk to them as the roads are to narrow so you have to use your car if you need to go out. But all in all we all had all,26 of us ,had a fab time and the kids did not want to leave.

  The house was ideal for our family holiday with ourselves (grandparents) and three families (our children and their children), so 8 adults and six children in all.

  The location is good for the whole of NE Scotland, although the main road outside the property is used by fast traffic so has to be approached with care. There is plenty of space for sleeping, playing, working, chilling out and most importantly for simultaneous food preparation for fussy kids using the multiple sinks, fridges, dishwashers etc. The house was clean and well presented when we arrived. The grounds are lovely with space for games, barbequing, eating and exploring. The caretaker John was helpful and attentive. He was very friendly. There were some minor negatives we have already informed John about: The matresses are badly worn and need replacement. The timeswitch on the tumble dryer is broken - it didn't switch off. And small children have to be watched on the upper landings as the bannister rails are widely spaced. But thank you - we had a great holiday. Everyone loved it.

  This is a fantastic property for large groups with a variety of comfortable rooms and many ensuite rooms.

  Perfect for families as well as corporate functions. Its located in the heart of a beautiful village, close to Barmouth beach, some local amenities and takeaways and cafes, but not close to any large supermarkets, however you can order food shopping. Parking is located just a few minutes walk away with a few spaces outside to unload. The property was clean and the photos do not do it justice. Kitchen is extremely well equipped, there is a drinks chiller in the sitting room as well as a poker table, football table, pool table and shuffleboard. The dining room comfortably seats all guests and there were highchairs and cots available. Bed Linen and hand, bath and teatowels are provided. Fantastic property, easy to contact the owner and the housekeeper who is available and local if you need them. I would definitely recommend.

  We booked this property for our wedding weekend.

  We had 20 guests who all got their own bedrooms. We had our wedding in the Secret Garden outside -it was perfect. The kitchen was big enough to bring in caterers and the dining table was great for having our wedding meal together. We had dancing in the large room downstairs as well. It was even better than we remembered when we viewed it earlier in the year! We used the games room and the kids loved the cinema room! All the bedrooms were lovely. We spent a whole day outside on the front grass playing games. We hope to come back again! It was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. An amazing venue in a great location.
