"Extreme potential but lacking care."

6.0

Amazing views and a beautiful house

Showing more care and being more hospitable. I found that whilst absolutely beautiful, the house felt “off limits” and use of the pool facilities were also limited (i.e. heavy lounge cushions were not put out or taken in every day - if you wanted to use them, you’d have to get it yourself). Communication was very limited - save for being informed of the breakfast times, there was no communication regarding the breakfast itself, property, etc. Finally, whilst adequate, the breakfast was often cold or strange (e.g. one small button mushroom provided which could honestly have been left out as it appeared to be restrictive / meagre).

Outside it looks beautiful, inside is quite another story.

The room I was allocated was quite dirty and dusty. I doubt it had been cleaned in a while. Food not so great. Quite surprised at the reviews on this property or maybe it was a bad time to stay there.

Historical House. Very charming, here time stood still. Tranquility, lush green surroundings Very hearty full breakfast. Hosts and staff are friendly and welcoming, always willing to help

Internet access can be at times fluctuating Hot water can sometimes take a while to flow.
