Very good

Large and cosy home base for a winter trip away with friends. Loved that it was pet friendly so our friends with a dog could come along. Comfy sleep and close to town. Wished the kitchen had some basic salt, pepper and oil though!

158 is a bit rundown and needed a good clean especially the carpets that did not look like they had been vacuumed. We wiped the mould off the window frames.
Heat pump not working when we arrived until we went and got new batteries for remote. No mattress protectors. No axe to chop wood. Lights in lounge entrance buzzed because of faulty transformers and we had to turn off. Top floor toilet cistern runs continuously.
Both fire ash buckets full
Could not see any smoke detectors.
damaged cupboard in kitchen, steps outside to top level damaged and dangerous and slippery. No contact number for any emergencies. We could have stopped the water damage when downstairs hot water cylinder pipe burst but could not find any phone number to call. We had to call book a batch. Outside needs a good tidy up.

Perfect spot for a family getaway. Extended family all fit in nicely. It was really nice having the main area, but separate self contained areas on the lower floor.

The prefect place for our multiple family holiday escape. The room set up is such that each family could enjoy their own space as well as a shared area. Location was nice, easy walking distance to powder keg. The property is on a hillside and a lack of flat area is the only real downside.
