Nice lovely hot tub
No way to block out the sun the roller blinds let too much sun in when trying to sleep in. Never met anyone not used to that on booking.com makes it more complicated for vat recipes.

Stayed here in June and returned in July and since then the owners have added a sink unit, stove top, microwave, BBQ and everything you would need for a short break should you wish to prepare your own food or simply prepare snacks. This property is comfortable, clean, in a beautiful quiet location with local pubs a short drive away. Perfect location to sit in the awesome hot tub and watch the sun go down and the stars appear. I will most definitely be returning here for a quiet break away from the work life stress of that I am certain!
Going home when my stay was up, could have happily stayed longer.

Spa - fantastic!
Easy parking for hire car
Not enough loo paper - had to use my own supply of tissues - probs just an oversight....
Horny bull next door meant I didn't sleep that well... not sure how you fix that if it belongs to the neighbours....
Miles away from anywhere....

We loved the setting, location was just beautiful. Peaceful area in the countryside with a nice luxury feel to the property and we really cannot complain in the slightest 🙌🏼
We thought an improvement to the property would be a slight overhang by the front door and back door to protect from rain water slightly better, other than that it’s perfect 👍🏼

This property was absolutely gorgeous, the bedroom and living space were very light and airy, and so so clean. There is everything you could need for a stay provided and extra towels that are brilliant for the hot tub!!! Could not recommend this place more. The owner has a great response rate and there was clear explanations for everything. The location was so beautiful and we went to a local pub called riverside at the Coventry arms and the garden was so perfect for the summer with the interior being gorgeous aswell. 10/10 location and experience for a retreat. Hope to be back soon!!!

We would have liked more towels to have a shower and use the hot tub. An empty can was left near the hot tub.
WiFi only worked outside.

Pretty much everything
Only thing we’d change is getting some cutlery and crockery. There are no kitchen facilities so is helpful to have cutlery for takeaways
