Cleanliness
The property generally appears well-kept, with no specific complaints about cleanliness. However, the mention of a mouldy barbeque grill suggests room for improvement in outdoor maintenance.
Location
The location is highly praised for its seclusion, easy access to local attractions, and the peaceful environment it offers. The proximity to the village and church adds to its charm.
Comfort
Guests found the property comfortable, with ample space and cosy rooms suitable for relaxation. Comfortable beds and a family-friendly atmosphere contributed to a restful stay.
Facilities
While the property is well-equipped and large, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a faulty light switch, inadequate kitchenware, and a non-functioning extractor fan. These are minor but detract from the overall quality.
Thoughtfulness
The welcome pack of local produce was appreciated, indicating thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, this should not be expected with every stay.
