  My dog spent the first few minutes of our arrival trying to get his nose under the sofa, when I put my hand under to feel what he was after, I could feel crumbs and old food.

  Underneath the sofa hadn't been cleaned in ages - it was filthy. The sofa was very easy to move so it shouldn't have posed a problem We could find no instructions for the dishwasher and, never having owned one, we hadn't got a clue so, since there was no washing up bowl, we had to wash up in the sink. Trouble was the plug didn't fit properly and the water very quickly drained away. We did (eventually - when we were packing up) find the instructions for the microwave, but they were pushed up on the top shelf in the kitchen wall cupboard. The 2 sofas were very tired looking, too soft and quite grubby. The windows (what windows there were - it was very dark) looked as though they hadn't been cleaned all season. The bathroom was so dark it was impossible for my husband to shave and anyway, the shaving mirror was 'floppy' and wouldn't stay where it was put. The flush on the toilet was very short and it never felt as though it wasn't enough to flush it properly. Under the bed was very dusty and one of the knobs on the bedroom drawers kept coming off. There were absolutely no cleaning products, so we were unable to clean anywhere before we left. A bottle of bleach for the toilet and plugholes wouldn't have been a bad idea. There was a Henry hoover but I was damned if I was going to use it and leave the place cleaner than we found it. We'd booked Friday to Friday, but, partly because of the weather but mainly because it just wasn't a nice place to spend our time, we left for home on the Tuesday. On a positive note, the people in the village are all very friendly. The shop seems to stock most things and the bread they sell is wonderful. We ate twice at the pub, staff were lovely and very heplful and it was very reasonable. Both times we were more than happy with our meal (although the sprouts were disgusting

  We stayed for 3 nights as a mini honeymoon and it was absolutely perfect.

  The pod was incredibly clean and every detail had been thought of, there were so many added comforts that were much appreciated, such as the blankets, the badminton set, the good quality towels, the really comfy bed and the nice crockery. We cooked some really lovely meals using the George Foreman bbq. It is located in the middle of nowhere, its 20 minutes drive to the nearest shop but we were happy with that, it was completely silent at night, other than the quiet humming of the hot tub and with such minimal light pollution we got amazing views of the stars at night. The hot tub was lovely, very clean and private and to sit in that and look out at the countryside was so relaxing! I have only scored a 7 on how likely I am to recommend to others because while we were there, our friends were asking for the details and when we went to send them, we realised the prices had more than doubled since we booked which I get, what with inflation but we won't be able to return again now as for the same money for us to spend 3 nights there, we could go abroad for a week.

  We recently stayed with our two dogs, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience.

  The cottage was spotless, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail was evident in every corner, making it feel like a true home away from home. Our host was incredibly friendly and welcoming, going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. They made us feel right at ease from the moment we arrived, and it was clear they genuinely care about their guests' comfort and enjoyment. Our dogs absolutely loved it here. The surrounding area was perfect for walks, with plenty of space for them to explore and enjoy the outdoors. It was good to find a place that was not only dog-friendly but also clearly understood the needs of dog owners. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind and relax. We’ll definitely be returning for another stay. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with their furry friends.

  Cherry blossom was lovely to stay in would really recommend!

  Information was given for the whole stay including local restaurants, takeaways, walk ways etc! Very informative and helpful! Also loved that the tv had access to Netflix, nowtv etc! The hot tub was gorgeous, very hot and the lights and jets were amazing!! The view was absolutely gorgeous also and it was all very private! Only slight improvement we could think of is possibly a mat as you walk in as we felt we were bringing water from the hot tub in with us, also the shower could have been hotter, but other than those small bits it was lovely!! Would definitely go again!

  They advertise a DVD player and there isn’t one!

  Only 6 mugs one of which is chipped. If you have a dishwasher you need more mugs, they are not expensive and it means you only need to put the dishwasher on maybe once every 2/3 days and save electricity. Was very surprised that there wasn’t a j cloth in the kitchen… not expensive and it does help with the washing up. A boot scraper by the front door would help as there’s no hall to stand in and it will save the front room carpet getting dirty! Also when wiping the kitchen floor on the 3rd day it was black so hadn’t been washed properly for some time!
