Response from the manager Thank you for your review. We are delighted that you have had an enjoyable stay at The Old Byre in Sandford. I am sorry that you did not like the air purifiers in the property they are solely to eliminate the smell of pets, as you may appreciate the property accepts pets from time to time pet odours cannot be removed completely during the cleaning process. The freshners are there to keep the air fresh and for this reason alone.and not for any other reason.
