Host & Stay - The Old Jail Barber's Shop

Loved the high standard decor and nice fixtures and fittings very comfortable like home .

We all Didn't like the beds as the mattresses were very uncomfortable and that affected our sleep.i had to complain about the cleanliness.

Modern and very comfortable - has everything you need

I was told there wasn’t a travel cot available so brought our own (with limited space in the car) but there was one waiting for us when we got there.

it was quirky and well thought out in the design and layout, it has clearly had a lot of thought gone into it with the modern furnishings and fancy lights etc, movement sensor lighting is sustainable and the cooker hob very cool but not easy to work out if you are used to a plain old gas hob like me! loved the skylight as it let in natural light.

No wardrobes - where were we supposed to hang up clothes? we were there for a wedding weekend and had suits, shirts and a dress to hang up ready to wear but not even a hanging rail in site !!!?? yet in the master bedroom was a free standing bath tub - who needs that when there are 2 shower to choose from?? and where was the microwave? most of all - no welcome pack?!!! no Yorkshire tea or milk left in fridge for our arrival, for the price we paid i expected at least teabags, milk, pack of biccies having driven a long way to get there. Don't even get me started on the size of the sinks in the bathrooms - so small!!! Bunk bed mattresses seen better days - very uncomfy!

This is a beautiful cottage with 'nearly' all that you need for a perfect comfortable stay. For my party, we loved that there was a downstairs bedroom and bathroom as we are a party of disabled ladies. We can't thank the owner enough for their flexibility at check out as it takes us a little longer than most to get moving in the morning. We loved the modern homely feel of the cottage with high spec utilities, all mod cons and wooden flooring. There was an iron and ironing board, air fryer, copious amounts of glasses, crockery and cutlery, pots and pans, a toaster, a kettle, a dyson hoover, fresh towels and bedding. The washing machine and dishwasher are great additions. Reclining sofa seats were a lovely surprise. There were 4 huge TVs. Parking is at the back of the house, but we didnt use it. We parked across the road and pulled the car onto the No Parking area outside the house to unload and pack. We gave some feedback on a couple of things and I'm confident the owner will get onto these straight away. It really is a beautiful homely cottage and if the mattresses were of better quality, we'd definitely return.

The mattresses were probably our biggest disappointment. Even with toppers, they were a little on the thin side so you could feel the springs and slats underneath. Our sleep wasn't great. Oven gloves and pot holders were holed with burns, and had food on. I put them out for washing when we left. The oven racks were dirty with burnt on fat splashes, so we didnt use them. There was no hanging space for clothes so we had to live out of our suitcases and the drawers. A small wardrobe with hanging space could be put at the bottom of each bed and chest of drawers moved to make best use of the space available. The advert said there were toiletries included, but there was no shampoo and shower gel so we had to buy some. Please dont let these small critiques put you off. This cottage is beautiful with a homely fee, in a great location, and I'd definitely recommend it.
