Perfect for Paddle Boarding

Love this little place ! It’s clean tidy has everything you need and is on the river Beautiful sunsets and even better in a storm lay in bed cosy and warm watching the weather batter the lake A real little gem that we are so pleased we found and will be returning too If you want to be near the water and you like quirky and appreciate nature this is the perfect place, the swallows are stunning to watch and the ducks will visit for some snacks if your offering! A perfect spot to escape reality and great communication from owner about where the cutlery was hidden (in draws on dining table cos you won’t find them !) Thanks for a well need break in a beautiful spot

Never Again

This property has a 10 out of 10 location. Fishing is excellent. Property was shabby but with no chic. Either been kitted out in 1960's or handpicked from local recycling centre. Smell from full cesspit on accessing property. Shower puts waste straight into broad and bad smell comes from drain. No Wi Fi, TV very poor reception just an odd channel working. Would have camped out in tent (if it existed). Blind broken and does not cover window. Fridge door broken and cannot store milk. Pans worn out and cooking sieve rusty. Nearly left the next day (Sunday), but stayed a bit longer still returned home cutting holiday short. Hugely overpriced for property and fixtures and fittings that were well below par. We could go on and on. What a shame that this wonderful location for a tranquil holiday (not so as builders were working driving in pilings next door - that is beyond owners control), was being used as a cash cow with inadequate investment to bring up even to a basic standard.

8/10 Good

Fantastic view

First impression was not great from the outside on arrival, and the staircase to the first floor. But it is a "Boathouse" and when you think of it's authenticity you come to appreciate it.. Once inside it was reasonably comfortable and well equipped with the everyday things you need. The view from the balcony was really spectacular and benefited from the afternoon/evening sun. Inside the furnishings were not to my taste with a mis-match of furniture and not a lot of space for hanging/storing things, would have struggled if staying more than a week. We didn't use the oven but there was a notice saying you can use the oven and the hobs but you can't use them both at the same time. Bathroom was well equipped with plenty of hot water and a good shower. Overall we had a good holiday and were blessed with reasonable weather.
