“I'm not sure I can do this property justice in a review.”
..I've been working it through my mind and there are just too many good points that one always gets left out but I'm going to give it a go. First off, I would heartily recommend staying here for the below reasons.
The host was incredibly easy to contact and a pleasure to deal with. Incredibly on the ball with making sure I knew everything I needed to know before we got there and very friendly.
The house was immaculate and such a cozy and welcoming place. Everything was easy to find inside and there were so many little thoughtful additions to make our stay easy and convenient.
The kitchen was so well stocked - if you want to bake brownies (we did), you can. If you want to do a full roast, you can. 3 course meal, you're on. Everything was catered for alongside little extras like chocolate or biscuits when you arrive after a hard day travelling, salt and pepper in the cupboard, in case you forgot, etc. My kids were particularly taken with the breakfast bar area which had a radiator right next to it so not only were they high up, but they were super warm too. I also have to show appreciation for the very sharp knives. To often, you go somewhere and the knives are so dull that it's pretty pointless (ha ha) to use them. These knives were perfect and made cooking a dream.
Living room plus dining room next. So many cute little points of interest and very comfortable. Nice fire with manual for decoding, for those cold days (it got to minus numbers while we were there but we stayed toasty) and a Smart TV which can accept other inputs through USB and HDMI ports. Took a while to figure out how and, in the end I had to give up and download the manual but that's the same of every smart TV now really. One thing we didn't realise until a day or two into our stay was that there was even a drawer with games in it, just in case you fancied a games night! The dining table was all set out ready for use and looked very smart. Excellent size for playing some of those games on too.
Downstairs bathroom was very handy for people for with limited mobility with a walk in shower and a cupboard of thoughtful supplies. The glass door is unusual but the whole time we were there, we never saw anyone doing their business or anything like that. The most you can see is a shadow of knees...
Upstairs was very homely and again, full of thoughtful touches like a night light and a place to fix a stairgate if needed. Each room was decorated beautifully, the beds were very warm and comfortable and there was plenty of storage to get you settled in. Again the upstairs bathroom was kitted out with some very thoughtful additions and the bath plus over bath shower were great after a long day. Note: is a high walled bath so those with lower mobility issues may struggle.
Location - couldn't be more central if you tried. The local pub is less than a minutes walk away as is the main street. Everything is very handy to this property but you're tucked away enough that there is very little noise. Definitely the best of both worlds.
In summary - You can not go wrong staying here. We will definitely be back.
