The accommodation was beautiful, had a well stocked kitchen and the location was peaceful and accessible with lovely walks straight from the property. Other reviews have mentioned the cleanliness. I understand the cleaners have been changed and the property was very clean when we arrived. As the property is an old building, has high ceilings and is spacious, warming it up took a while, so the logs were appreciated. We did need to purchase quite a few more for the first few days and were glad we'd packed slippers and hot water bottles. Thank you for a wonderful stay, and we look forward to returning.
