"Overall a very positive experience with wonderful hosts"

9.0

A "quirky" property with considerable charm and character. The hospitality of the host was extraordinary which made our stay a delightful experience. Breakfast was cooked to order and was a highlight of the overall experience.

It's not a criticism to say that the property would benefit from some renovation - its goes with having been built in the 18th Century! While the public areas (i.e. sitting room, dining room) were very comfortable, the bedroom furniture was unsurprisingly somewhat antiquated while the bathroom is less than ideal - all part of the experience!

Wonderful historical house. Stayed one night with our dog who played well with the two resident dogs. Property is on a large wooded lot with lots of space to explore

"I would stay again, and never have I ever had breakfast in such a grand setting."

8.0

This is a stay that divided opinions between myself and my husband. He likes comfort and modern luxury whilst I value character and beauty. I booked the stay. I love the creaky floors, the real working country house feel of the place, the gorgeous dogs, the laid up breakfast table, the roaring fire, wonderful grounds to walk through. Just look at the photos.

My husband would say the bed could have been more comfy, the TV be larger and maybe mounted on a wall, but let's be honest, it would then feel really out of character.

"We cancelled on arrival"

1.0

We did not stay. We cancelled on arrival and are waiting to hear about a refund. The place is going thru major renovations, that and the steep stairway impossible for wife to use. Not at all what it was advertised as.

"Superb"

Great family home with history, and the hosts were so welcoming and chatty. Their two dogs, Bertie and Doo, were equally charming, especially by the fire. Room was quirky and comfortable. Loved staying here.

"I enjoyed the stay. Its an old mansion which is an experience on itself. But not for everyone."

8.0

Its an old mansion. I have never stayed in a place like this so it was a fun experience for me.

The twin bed could be larger. Kinda tight for 2.
