"Fantastic!"

9.0

The location

I knew it in advance, so it’s not a complain at all, but just one bathroom/toilet restricts the overall level of comfort for families or larger groups.

"A quaint stay."

9.0

Private and serene. A quaint little cottage with comfy beds and everything we needed. Very accommodating and helpful when we realised we left something behind!

Not much we didn't like. Just one thought, the day we arrived was miserable and very cold weather, so it might have been a nice touch to have had the fire going upon arrival 😊

"Exceptional"

10.0

This is the type of property which usually gets high marks. It is a farm, located in an isolated area, very quiet and serene. There are several buildings and apartments available for rent. Although we didn't personally meet the host, everything went smooth and we felt great. They offer a fine dining restaurant, but it was closed when we arrived.

The only minus we found was that there was only one bathroom, in the upper floor, so people sleeping downstairs had to climb the stairs every time they needed to use the toilet.

"We had a pleasant one night stay. The Granery needs a bit of love to make it fresh."

6.0

The beautiful old buildings, the country setting and the fireplace. The Granery is a cosy environment.

The sheets, pillows and mattresses were old, time to replace them. The couch needs a steam clean.
