The house is amazing. Such a good space for a family get together. Well equipped kitchen with loads of space and comfy lounge and bedrooms. Massive outdoor space too which is enclosed so perfect for kids and dogs alike. Loved it.
We stayed here for my brother's 50th birthday celebration weekend with all the family from ages 12 up to 75. It is a fabulous house for socialising, with large open plan kitchen/dining/games area. We never made it into the lounge! Dave was a great host and replied promptly to any questions throughout the booking process and when there. The house is well stocked and plenty of storage space for guests. The pool area and garden are slightly different now to the photos (garden is smaller) but still provided a great outdoor space for games/entertaining. It is an older style country house and possibly would benefit from a new coat of paint in the well used areas but we were very happy here and would return again for a repeat visit.
Would highly recommend a visit to Sheppys near by for their private cider tours/tasting.
We were 2 sisters with husbands and adult children. Traveled from US to visit extended family- aunt, uncle and cousins. The house was perfect for us to get together. We were 9 staying at the house, and plenty of room for us to spread out. Would recommend.
Stayed here with 10 of us (5 couples) over New Years. Host was very helpful and made everything very easy for us to check in. Place was clean and presentable. Lots of character and plenty of space. Would recommend to anyone :)
