Very clean, modern downstairs with upstairs more traditional, the view and hottub is what makes the place and is top drawer. Garden is open plan and near another building with guests but no issue and remains private as is the hottub Thanks for our stay

The hot tub was amazing, fully adjustable to our preferences (lights, heat, jets/bubbles), one of the headrests was not properly attached so kept coming off, the owner is aware of this and it doesnt affect use of the hot tub at all. The outdoor area looks amazing, an abundance of cushions for it and there were some really good outdoor lights that lit up the garden perfectly. The beds were comfortable and warm and the heating in the house was also adjustable to how we liked it. The owner had left takeout menus which was helpful and there were boardgames in the ottomans which was a nice touch. The kitchen facilities were amazing and there was plenty of space to prep etc. We did have to rewash the dishes as they were not properly cleaned from the previous people, small amounts of food/sauce left on various things which was not a big deal for us and we'd typically rewash dishes when staying away from home anyhow. There was also a few lamp lights not working. The location is great it is far enough away to be tranquil and peaceful but not so far that you feel like you're driving forever to get to the shops. About a 5 min drive to the nearest village. The owner was excellent and quick at communicating with us when we had any questions or comments.

We thought the owners were in the first property but thatâs a holiday let too. We loved our stay however found the mattresses too hard and used both beds in a bid to find a comfortable sleep. The hot tub was the highlight of the property and booked it only because of the view and the hottub. Think lesser ambled people would find the stairs to bedrooms and down to the only toilet in the property difficult as they are very steep and narrow in stair width. The steps down to kitchen are very steep and uneven, but the kitchen has all you need apart from a dishwasher and dryer. The kitchen crockery and pans are good quality, everything you would need to make home cooked meals at home.
