Nice secure area for the dogs to run around. Would be lovely if they could add a bbq area! However, a few little things let it down⦠the house could do with slightly more cleaning, lots of cobwebs! Also one of the larger sofa legs was broken when we arrived so this limited our seating slightly. Lastly, two members of our party got hot tub folliculitis quite badly despite following all the hot tub rules. The hot tub looked slightly discoloured and smelt slightly fusty, we presumed it was ok as we hadnât been told any different, this got worse over the week we were there - not sure if this is checked every day. We informed the owner and sent them pictures but unfortunately havenât heard anything back.

The location is perfect, the owner (Rachel) could not do enough for us, it was very clean and looked after. We enjoyed a lovely tour of the working farm, and the hot tub was excellent. We will absolutely be returning!

The owners couldn't do enough to make it special, and Rachael even showed us around the farm which was fascinating. Would highly recommend!!!
