Better than described in every way
This was the last leg of a long European vacation. We wanted to unwind and use the time as the proverbial vacation after vacation. It could not have been better! The location is sublime, the house gorgeous and the owners friendly and welcoming. Thankyou so much for the use of your incredible space and facilities.

A little underwhelming for the price
Great location… Wasn’t as clean in places as could have been… Main thing was owners were away for the 4 days and internet only worked for a few minutes here and there…no way to resolve and nothing offered some form of compensation as I missed some work commitments …reliable fast WiFi is not a luxury like 20 years ago it should be standard …honesty in listing…I’d rather someone say “we are in the countryside and might be….” Rather than promising super fast or other…maybe sites need to list upload and download speeds which are easily attainable…as said nice location but not if you are wanting to stream or work or rely heavily on a decent wifi…

July 2024 stay
A lovely cottage, nicely decorated and very well equipped. Surrounded by countryside so peaceful. Georgie was very easy to communicate with. The weather was terrible, but that didn’t matter as we were all cosy inside. Thanks for a relaxing stay.
