    Having to leave it!

    Everything! It was just perfect! Only stayed one night and wished we could of stayed longer. It was the ultimate in relaxation. We absolutely loved everything about it. Very clean and comfortable with lovely finishing touches of biscuits, tea bag’s, toiletries and quality bedding.

    Not a matter of not liking but it is 'compact'. Didn't really bother us for a 2 night stay. Window in bathroom needs a blind. Created a beacon in bedroom when visits made in night. No shampoo 😖

    Great location for our needs with lovely outlook across the garden.

    There's a little cupboard which has slightly noisy pipes in it, although I was tired so they didn't keep me awake.

    Cute little studio room with kitchenette facilities and separate entrance. Gorgeous view from window onto well kept garden. Loved the little touches like the toiletries in bathroom and the provision of biscuits, and cereal and milk so I could have breakfast in the morning. Comfortable bed and modern bathroom. Cute pub 2 min walk away to get dinner.

    Beautiful location - rural and quiet. A lovely pub/restaurant ( The Red House) within walking distance. The studio was beautifully decorated. It was very clean, and it was warm on a chilly, wet March day. Facilities exactly as described.

    Everything was fine for my however no TV so if that’s what you want bring an iPad with you. Never bothered me though.

    Very comfortable and homely, very welcoming on my arrival and after a long drive the room was warm and cosy.

    Tiny sign outside, which was very difficult to see in the wet and in the dark. A mirror in the room would be helpful to allow 2 people to get ready at the same time. There was a window from the shower room to the bedroom. The lamp in the shower / toilet shone right through this window onto the face of person sleeping in the bed, whilst the other visited the toilet hence waking one’s partner.

    The location was excellent for us It had a fridge

    It would be good to have a manual for the heating in the room and bathroom. Unfortunately, for me it was trial and error, but I generell struggle with the different heating systems in the UK.

    Nothing!

    My husband and I stayed at this property for 1 night only as we were attending a wedding 10minutes from the property. As soon as we parked our car and entered, we were delighted to find a very; clean, spacious, well kept, beautiful property with lovely views. Our host was super helpful and friendly as well as attentive, seen as though our plans of arrival kept changing on the day. We would highly recommend this place to anyone and if ever we were to come back, we would stay here in a heartbeat! 1 night was not enough! Thank you!

    Nothing! Its a lovely little place. Ideal as a get away from it all.

    The studio is in a lovely area, just a few houses and a pub. There is a very comfortable bed, a small table and chairs and a kitchen sink, kettle, fridge and toaster. The bathroom has a rainfall shower and a hand held one, very clean. There is a small private patio area which is lovely for a morning cuppa or evening drink. Great views. The Red House pub does very good food and is only a couple of doors down.
