Reviews

Beautiful property, but unfortunately our stay wasn't pleasant. The property needs a good clean and decluttering! The dog-smell and dog hairs were off putting. There were no space to put our food in the kitchen, all the drawers and cupboards were full! The cupboard in the ensuite bedroom is unsuitable for a week's stay, we had to live out of our suitcase on the floor. It is a shame that the garden can't be accessed from within the property (steps down from the upstairs living area would be good). We won't be back, unfortunately.
