This is the first time we've stayed here and we were very impressed with the house, surroundings, etc. Very quiet area with a fantastic pub at the bottom of the hill.

First view you see is a Picturesque cottage set in beautiful grounds at the end of a private gated drive. Felt very safe and secure.
The accomodation of the cottage is good with 4 bedrooms. Two twin and two king size. All good sized rooms. Some beds need replacing which I gather the owner is sorting. Lovely shower room. The en-suite is serviceable but shower a bit pathetic.
Bedding and towels provided of a high standard.
Two lounges and a dining room. All comfortable and nice to have extra space if it’s a large group. Kitchen has an Aga plus oven/hob and microwave. Plenty of cooking utensils, pans and dishes. Lots of crockery and cutlery. Lovely big kitchen table too.
Dove Cote is a pretty space. Couple of issues but eventually sorted.
Outside space is its crowning glory.
Pool area lovely.
House needs a little tlc in areas but in view of its age I would think it’s a never ending task for the owners.
We did set alarm off and didn’t have instructions to it turn off. Eventually found house book and sorted it! Poor neighbours!
A couple of cleaning issues which have also been taken on board.
All in all we had a lovely week. Pool was great and grounds were beautiful.

The perfect Christmas getaway, felt just like the cottage out of the holiday but bigger! Beautiful surrounding landscapes and lots of space for 12 guests. It was a little too cold for us to use the pool however would definitely revisit in the summer as it looked amazing! The outside annex was done to a really high modern country style which was beautiful, although the rest of the house is was nice it was a little dated. The house was clean and comfortable and we would all definitely stay again and recommend to anyone looking for a countryside getaway.

What an amazing place. Country house with charm, history, lots of communal space and very well equipped kitchen. It has its quirks as you would expect from an old building - some low doorways, some tired decor - but it is beautiful. And the grounds and gardens are spectacular. And then the pool - huge, warm, very clean - a lovely space to soak up the sun, if you are lucky enough to get any (we were) and to sit and relax. Handy for local pub, nature reserve, vineyard and great walks. A fantastic place to spend a special birthday with family and friends.

The cottage and grounds are stunning and the pool is brilliant.

The bedrooms are large and spacious. We had issues with the fridge and the dishwasher. The dishwasher didn't clean any of the dishes which meant washing everything by hand and the fridge just didn't keep anything cold - this meant we had to throw a lot of our food away.

The showers can also be inconsistent if a lot of you are trying to use them in the morning.

That said the cottage is really beautiful and we had a lovely stay.

This property has much to recommend it and we were very happy with the house, garden and excellent pool. There were a few issues which I have pointed out to the agents; if these are rectified, I would upgrade my marks to excellent.
