Kelly
Loved how big, open plan and modern it is. Very relaxing in an evening with lovely ambient lighting. A few niggles. Not signposted at all so we couldnât find it..listing shows an extra living room however this is now a bedroom. A tad misleading. No instructions how to operate the thermostats. Upstairs was cold downstairs was boiling. Lights seem to have a mind of their own. Shower tray in en suite master room is very slippery. Lack of oven trays (none) and only one frying pan that stuff stuck to. Luckily we prepped most meals before we came but it was difficult to make a full English breakfast. Large sofa is quite lumpy and sunken in places and low down but a fab size. Spaniel Dog kept coming in and jumping all over everyone and on furniture, also pooed on car park, however it is a really lovely dog which luckily our dog got on with. We enjoyed the board games in laundry room cupboard. Hot tub was lovely but as it is wood fired it isnât easy to control temperature. Lovely once it was right temperature. Overall we enjoyed our break.

Every amenity we could have needed had been provided. Easy driving to nearby Richmond and lots of lovely walks from the property or a short drive away. We would definitely go back. We have an 11 and an 8 year old and the owners let them use a nearby area within sight of us for kicking a football and we had a slight problem with hot water which was resolved very quickly.

Small issue with beds being split but within 10 minutes this was all sorted. Very comfortable and modern. Only issue we had was 2 hounds that kept coming into the property and they were constantly jumping up and actually made one of the party bleed. Hot tub was a great addition. Thank you for a lovely stay. We will definitely be back.
