Some minor drawbacks mentioned include the condition of the access lane and kitchenware adequacy.
The property is described as 'very clean', indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciated.
While the property's rural charm is noted, there is no specific mention of the location's convenience or attractions, hence a score cannot be provided.
Guests found the property warm, cosy, and homely, with very comfy beds and plenty of space, suggesting a high level of comfort.
The property is well-equipped with a dishwasher, tumble dryer, and woodburner. However, the removal of a pizza oven and the mention of insufficient kitchenware for cooking for eight people suggest room for improvement.
The presence of items in the fridge and other amenities were a pleasant surprise for guests, showing thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not guaranteed, guests should not expect them on every visit.

Wonderful house and garden. Both dogs and owners had a wonderful time and we were blessed with fantastic weather. Worked well with a multi generational group.

Three generations of our family stayed at Fairstead. It provided us with everything we wanted from the holiday. Space for the grandchildren to play, enough room for us all to be together, or, separate. A beautiful house in a beautiful location, equipped with everything you could need. Any queries were quickly sorted by the lovely housekeeper.

We had an excellent holiday at Fairstead- for three generations of family, there was lots of space in this beautiful property. We enjoyed a BBQ together and lots of meals gathered around the huge dining table. The house is beautifully decorated and has many excellent features such as the dishwasher, tumble dryer and utility space that make travelling with children and dogs much easier! We really enjoyed our holiday here.
