Guests have praised Church Farmhouse for its spaciousness, historical charm, and peaceful countryside setting. The property's well-equipped games room, comfortable beds, and welcoming touches like cake and Prosecco on arrival are frequently mentioned. While some minor issues were noted, the overall sentiment is one of satisfaction and a desire to return.
The majority of reviews highlight the property as very clean, with only a few isolated comments on musty smells likely due to the property's age. The cleanliness is consistently praised, suggesting a high standard is maintained.
The location is described as peaceful and perfect for countryside walks, with easy access to nearby towns and pubs. Some guests experienced issues with flooding and drainage, but these seem to be weather-related rather than constant concerns.
Comfort is frequently commended, with special mentions of comfortable beds and cosy living spaces. A few guests noted the house was hard to keep warm and had rough carpets, but these comments are relatively rare.
Facilities like the games room are a hit, and the property is well-equipped for guests. Some feedback suggests room for improvement in maintenance, such as the need for more outside lighting, a second TV, and addressing a musty smell.
Guests frequently express appreciation for the thoughtful touches, such as the provision of essentials upon arrival. While these gestures are highly valued, it is important to note that such amenities are subject to change and may not be guaranteed for every stay.
