“Large accommodation”
The house was a little dated in certain areas, but overall the accommodation was suitable for all of our needs. Loved the large pool the outside furniture downstairs could have been more comfortable because this is where we mostly sat during the day as we had two members of our party with limited mobility.

Response from the owner Many thanks for the feedback - I’m glad you enjoyed your stay and the pool, which is always a favourite feature. We have a list of rolling replacements and upgrades of furniture, so we’ll prioritise the downstairs furniture for next season. Best regards, Jon

“Brilliant family home in a superb location”

“Perfect for a houseparty”
When arriving at this property, idyllicly located in this beautiful village, we did not realise the extent of the accomodation. Tardis- like in so many ways, our large family gathering had so much space both inside and outside the house. The very large pool soon became the focal point of our stay, with the substantial barbeque area poolside adding much to the atmosphere. We enjoyed being close to the village with all its amenities, including a couple of good restaurants. The landlord's agent saw that all our needs were met, including reparations needed after the previous booking. We cannot wait to return to this very special place

Response from the owner Dear Darren, I am very sad that you have felt the need to post this review. We have consistently good feedback from all previous guests (in fact most are return visitors), but we've never had to deal with the house left in such a state, with so much damage (ruined linen, broken table football table, urine-stained mattress, badly stained armchair, maggot infested bins). Nor have we ever had to retain any damage deposit in the three years that we've rented our family house - there are always little bits and pieces which get damaged, but this is part and parcel of having a lived-in home that we put down to standard wear-and-tear, rather than taking from a damage deposit. I hope you come back to the area, as you are right - it's wonderful for all things outdoors. However, our house is much more suited to families (such as ours) than it is to a large group of teenagers, especially given the quality of furnishings, linen etc. Kind regards, Jon & Suzanne

We had a long weekend here with friends and thought the house was fantastic. The 12 metre pool was a treat, as the weather was really hot so it was great to cool off. The house has everything you cou… More
