    “The property was exactly as described.”

    The kitchen was well equipped. There was more than enough crockery and cutlery for the 9 of use who stayed. The beds were comfortable and the bed linen and towels were very clean. Bathrooms are modern and clean. There were plenty of sofas and chairs, however a couple of them are a little tired. It is the lakes and we did have rain the ceiling in the bedroom at the far end of the building on the ground floor let in the rain and we had to put a bucket in the room to collect the water.

    The kitchen was well equipped. There was more than enough crockery and cutlery for the 9 of use who stayed. The beds were comfortable and the bed linen and towels were very clean. Bathrooms are modern and clean. There were plenty of sofas and chairs, however a couple of them are a little tired. It is the lakes and we did have rain the ceiling in the bedroom at the far end of the building on the ground floor let in the rain and we had to put a bucket in the room to collect the water. The gutters look as though they needed cleaning so this may be a simple fix. There was ample parking for our 3 cars. We had a great stay and we would definitely book High Lindeth again.

    Dear Susan, thank you for your review which is important to us. As you rightly say, we have had a lot of rain this summer and one of the bedrooms had a leak in the ceiling. The builders have had a look at it and a tile that had slipped has been restored and the leak has stopped. The next job is for me to paint out the stains, but I must wait for the ceiling to completely dry out. The gutters will be cleaned this week as we have some dry weather. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your holiday and thank you for choosing High Lindeth. Best wishes, the owner. Property Owner
