10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Our group of friends has stayed in several properties over the past few years and we all agreed this was by far the best. From the outset the host, Mark, was great with communication and did everything to make sure things went smoothly. The house itself was spotlessly clean and had everything needed for our getaway. The generous welcome package was really appreciated and we couldn't have asked for a better start to our stay. The house had so many great features and lots of space both inside and out: the games room was really good and the firepit was a real bonus.Overall, we had a great time in a beautiful house, with an excellent host. Can't recommend it strongly enough!

An absolute gem. Pet-friendly, lots of room, plenty of things to do, huge garden with several seating areas, bbq, covered lounge area and fire pit plus plenty of outdoor games for all ages. Bedrooms clean and comfortable, kitchen a dream to work in, could not ask for anything more. Definitely going back as soon as possible.
