This is a stunning property in a wonderful rural location, in driving distance to lots of attraction
This is a stunning property in a wonderful rural location, in driving distance to lots of attractions. The house is huge - but it's decor and the feel are comfortable and comforting. The real open fires were very welcome addition during our February stay, and I've honestly never slept so well. There is everything you could need in the kitchen, big fridge freezer, big range cooker, dishwasher - all the pans, crockery etc. There isn't a hairdryer provided, and when we were there the iron didn't work, but those are minor details! There's a downstairs loo, TV's in every room and that snooker table! Use the full address to find it or the locator pin Suzy will send you. Definitely book ahead for the pub, it's fab. Well signposted walks from the doorstep in every direction. Loved it.
