Guests say
The Milking Parlour is highly praised for its spaciousness, cleanliness, and well-equipped facilities, including a hot tub and games room. It's ideal for family gatherings, offering a quiet location with local walks and nearby attractions. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as a welcome cake and wine, and the property's layout accommodates multiple generations comfortably.
Guests consistently note the property as clean and well-presented, indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the cottage.
The location is appreciated for its quietness and scenic surroundings, with easy access to local walks and towns. However, one review mentioned difficulty in finding the property and a preference for a less secluded spot.
The majority of guests find the property comfortable, with spacious rooms and cosy living areas. A few guests mentioned the beds being too soft or feeling springs, which slightly affects the comfort score.
The facilities, including a hot tub, games room, and well-furnished kitchen, are frequently highlighted as bonuses. There was a minor issue with a wasps nest and a desire for a larger freezer, but these were exceptions in otherwise positive feedback.
Many reviews mention thoughtful gestures such as a welcome bottle of wine, homemade cake, and chocolates. While these gifts are greatly appreciated, it's important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.

It was clean, well equipped and had plenty of space for a family get together. The games room was ideal especially for a family that have played table tennis. It is some where you would definately go back to. A place where you can make memories.

Very quiet location and nicely arranged so privacy from the other cottages. Only downside - outdoor sitting space isn't in the evening sun and is all hard paving, not attractive.
