Wall around the lawn to the rear requires some edge protection or warning of the large fall, no instruction was provided for the heating system and communication regarding any issues with the vendors was non existent other than their initial message.

There is lots to complain about! Riddled with damp,water running down interior walls,flooding kitchen when using dishwasher,downstairs shower wonât work (my disabled mum could not shower all week) windows donât open which is a huge fire risk! Has to be illegal! Some of the taps in the bathrooms donât work,the smell of damp is ridiculous! Urine stains on carpets just left! Floors are ridiculously filthy! My son has chronic asthma and we have had no end of asthma attacks this week due to the damp,so many so we left early! Our holiday was completely ruined.How you are happy to have this property on your books is beyond me!

There is plenty of space for a large group with the family room, TV room and quiet room. Loads of room outside and very safe for the children and the dog. The building itself is very quirky and the kids loved exploring all the rooms. They did though find the access room with a ladder to the turret, which was not very safe. There was a lovely amount of hot water so everyone could shower when they wanted. The beds were very comfortable with good quality linen. Also plenty of towels . The building itself is tired and needs some thoughtful maintenance. For example the carpet gripper at the entrance to the kitchen sticks through the worn carpet and could have hurt bare little feet if we hadn't covered with a mat. We notified Sykes that the main oven didn't work the day we arrived, although we received an acknowledgement, no action was taken while we were there.
