Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of reviews highlight the property's cleanliness, with guests finding it lovely and clean. There are a few mentions of areas for improvement, but these are minimal compared to the overall positive feedback.
The location is generally praised for being peaceful and close to local attractions. However, one review mentioned a lack of secure outdoor space for dogs, which suggests the location may not be perfect for all.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the property cosy, with several positive comments about the warmth and cosiness of the cottage. There is a single mention of sofas needing more padded cushions, but overall, comfort levels are rated highly.
Facilities are well-received, with mentions of a well-equipped kitchen and a games room. Some guests suggest updates to the kitchen and bathrooms, and there are isolated comments on maintenance issues, leading to a slightly lower score.
The welcome hampers are frequently mentioned and appreciated, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts, while common, are a courtesy and not guaranteed with every stay.

The children want to come back. Very tasty cakes in the welcome basket. Games room was an added bonus.

Initial impression was very positive. However, having stayed in other dog friendly accommodation it has never smelt so doggy as Owls Retreat. The property needs decorating. The bathroom and kitchen were not clean especially inside kitchen cupboards and cooking utensils. There were ants in lounge dining area which were coming through the front door area On a positive. The beds were very comfortable, lovely towels and a very nice welcome pack The accommodation is in a perfect location for visitor area

Spacious and clean accommodation. Beds very comfortable but sofas could do with more padded cushions. A bit muddy for walking but would be great location once the ground has dried up. Owners were friendly without being intrusive and we loved being greeted by the sheep dog. Thank you
