Beautiful, comfortable and well equipped accomodation, with plenty of rooms and living space.

9.0

It is a beautiful quaint cottage with plenty of rooms and space. A full kitchen, dining and living areas, 2 bathrooms and laundry with washer and dryer.

When we arrive at the accomodation late afternoon, it hadn't been serviced/cleaned. The 'after hours' phone number didn't answer. So, we washed the sheets and towels in the washer and dryer ourselves. However, with texts to the manager, they were very apologetic and did what they could to rectify the situation, and we were given a refund.

It's a lovely place to stay, a few light globes needed replacing the tv is basic needs upgrading.

8.0

The property is in a lovely spot if you don't want to stay in the city. Not much around the area. The hotel does not allow children in the restaurant, and the restaurant I'm not even sure was open as once checked in (self checkin) we had no contact from anyone and it all looked closed.

Would have been nice to have a welcome note and some snacks in the fridge as everything is so far away. A lot of homes we stayed in / resorts on our trip had milk, eggs, bacon and some bread in fridges and at this price point I think this would have been a nice thing to do.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovingly restored historic home. The house was warm, comfortable, and located in a quiet neighbourhood, perfect for our stay. Everyone slept exceptionally well. We would be very happy to stay here again.
