A lovely setting and building for a wind-down after a hectic summer. Beds very comfortable and the house warm. The modern appearance of the rooms was appreciated as was the hot tub which my daughter's foster child liked. Although there is room for 8 (we only had 5 + baby) there was plenty of room and we didn't feel claustrophobic in the house. SadlRead morey, the weather was not conducive to us trying the BBQ. Hide

Really good spacious accommodation for our family group; children really enjoyed the on-site play equipment and hot tub. Definitely 5 star potential, but let down slightly during our stay by some maintenance and cleanliness issues. Good local shop in nearby Kinnerley.

A spacious, well equipped cottage in a great location. The kids enjoyed the play area and tennis court. The hot tub was great. If taking kids I would suggest taking your own cutlery (the ones at the property are quite big). Not as clean as expected for a 5 star property at this price range. Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed exploring the surRead morerounding area. Hide

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at the house. The location is beautiful, the house is spacious and ideal for a large group.

Accommodation is great and the facility has everything you need for a UK break. The hot tub was excellent and the barbecue great for rustling up a meat feast. Parking and security was great onsite and the grounds were well looked after. The only improvement we would recommend is the standard of cleanliness. We felt that a good spring clean was needRead moreed as areas were dusty and build up of dirt could be seen in areas. Floors needed a good mopping and toilets in depth cleaned in our opinion. Hide
