We booked this property for a family get together and it provided a fantastic base for us. Ideal location to explore surrounding area and also large, comfortable inside and outdoor space for the 10 of us to be together. Disappointed that the house wasn't really 'prepared' for our visit, it felt as if we had arrived unexpectedly - unwashed washing in washing machine, more laundry in tumble drier, no empty cupboard in kitchen for our own food and similar in bedrooms with no allocated unused space in wardrobes, BBQ broken despite being listed on website as being available. Pretty minor issues but meant that the weekend didn't start on as positive a note as it could have which was a pity as other than that the house and garden area are fantastic. Would also add that the 'double' circular bed is not really suitable for 2 adults to share, unless they are both pretty small! Hope that the comments are taken onboard as none of them would take much to put right and would definitely help with those all important first impressions. Angus was great over the weekend and got the BBQ up and working for us by the Sunday. We had a fantastic time (helped by lovely weather meaning time in the hot tub was very enjoyable!) and loved the quirkiness of the house with the mix of old and new. Would recommend the property and hope that the preparation for guests can be improved so that the full stay can be enjoyed from minute of arrival until departure.
