The property is very good. Space beds very comfortable. All high end equipment throughout the house which is unusual for a rental house.
On the lower ground bedroom there is no blind on the door which is odd, also the radiators didn’t work in the 2 downstairs bathrooms. Also Dishwasher didn’t work, it had a fault code which when reported I was told to turn it off dry the sensor with a hairdryer!! That didn’t work and nothing was done about it.

The location was amazing and the space in both the house and grounds were super.
The downstairs bedroom has a glass door so there was no privacy. The downstairs ‘family’ bathroom had opaque glass, which wasn’t ideal. Two bedrooms had baths but no showers

The house was beautiful and the grounds were lovely. The wood burner was a real highlight.
The property wasn’t very clean when we arrived. There were lots of cobwebs, dust and dead bugs. The hob stopped working mid stay. The kitchen was well equipped for some things but not others. E.g no baking dishes. The can opener was broken. Salt but no pepper. Only one cloth and one tea towel were provided in the kitchen. The location is pretty secluded so it wasn’t easy to just ‘pop into town’ to get stuff we needed. A clearer description of what we could expect upon arrival would have been helpful.
We absolutely loved our stay but it definitely could have been less frustrating.

A very tranquil escape with comfortable surroundings and everything you need.
The house is hard to find as there is no house name on the gate or entrance. Also its important to note that the grounds are on steep hills so anyone with mobility issues need to be aware that walking around the grounds is arduous. We took our two dogs as its supposed to be enclosed. We always closed the gate at the end of the drive however, a couple of times the gate had been opened and fastened down when we were at the property which made it unsafe for the dogs
