Outstanding location. Very last minute booking for us and everything went so smoothly. 100% will be returning. The weather was atrocious over the bank holiday weekend so spent more time inside than we usually would.Skylark more than made up for the constant downpours outside. It has been mentioned before but the lack of a freezer or even a freezer compartment was a bit of an issue.

Great location, accessible to many other villages. The space was huge and more than comfortable for two. Lovely decor in the living and bedroom which made the stay so cozy. The kitchen had everything we needed. Will definitely return.

on site parking was provided but manoeuvring into the space was tight if your vehicle is large For the owners information the kick board below the sink etc. kept falling down twice onto my foot I would certainly go back as everything else was excellent
