Guests say

This summary has been generated using feedback from guests who have stayed at this property

The Silverbirch Room is a well-received cottage with guests praising its unique and cosy decor, featuring natural wood and a wood burner. The property offers a serene patio with wildlife views, and Steve, the owner, is commended for his friendliness and helpfulness. Guests enjoy the convenient location with easy access to local pubs and transport.

Cleanliness

Guests have not reported any issues with cleanliness, and the mention of a 'pristine' interior suggests a very high standard of cleanliness.

Location

The location is appreciated for its access to wildlife and local amenities, though one mention of road noise slightly detracts from the perfect score.

Comfort

The property is described as cosy and comfortable, particularly noting the bed and wood burner, although one guest experienced a cold night due to a lack of knowledge on how to use the wood burner.

Facilities

Facilities are well-regarded with mentions of a good wood burner, a rotating TV, and a well-equipped property. However, the lack of initial guidance on using the wood burner for one guest slightly lowers the score.

Thoughtfulness

Steve's hospitality, including a welcome pack and fresh eggs, is highly praised, indicating thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, this is noted for guests' expectations.

The kitchen features a 2-ring induction hob, combi microwave/oven/grill, fridge with freezer compartment and a slimline dishwasher, so you have everything on-hand for home-cooking. Take a seat on the settee and tune into the Smart TV, which is cleverly designed on a swivel arm so it can be rotated and used whilst you are in bed. Freshen up in the sleek shower room, featuring a backlit mirror, before climbing into the king-size bed featuring an electronic relaxation vibration/massage feature. A rear door leads out to the enclosed patio space where you can enjoy a drink whilst overlooking the ancient woodland. If you can tear yourself from your tranquil base, an abundance of serene walkways and cycle trails are waiting to be traversed nearby, whilst golf lovers will be spoilt for choice with the Morley Hayes, Breadsall Priory and Horsley Lodge golf clubs being situated a short drive from your lovely new dwelling.
