Amazing property in secluded wooded location with amazing views.

Beautiful property. My only gripe is it needs a dryer. But then, that’s just a first world entitlement comment.

It was perfect. Loads of space for us all. And such a beautiful house and area. Hosts were excellent in keeping us informed of details.

The location is stunning and in its glory days the property would have been too.Sadly, the decor is tired, the aga has been removed leaving a mess of missing plaster, tiles and brickwork that show it was ripped out and nothing done to the wall behind. The kitchen needs replacing and looks grubby and dirty even when you clean it. Chipped mugs, flaking baking trays and miniature dinner plates make self catering a bit miserable.The cellar/downstairs accommodation is damp, the bedding is damp and the smell isn’t pleasant.The ground floor bathroom is old and unfortunately has a silverfish infestation which makes it feel grim.Upstairs the bathroom is more modern but the shower doesn’t work. The hot water manages 1 bath per half day so not adequate for a larger family who expect hot water on demand and no way to wash your hair upstairs. The house has an eclectic charm but in reality it needs a complete overhaul to be fit for purpose. The first house we have rented that we left early and wouldn’t return to
