    “When we first booked this property, we didn’t look at the reviews.”

    The property met all our needs so we booked it. As our stay was approaching, we read the reviews and became quite concerned at the reported lack of cleanliness. We messaged the owners before we came to see if we should bring our own cleaning products to tackle this issue, but we were advised that the property had recently been taken over by new management so we shouldn’t need to bring any cleaning products. They were right. The property was spotless when we arrived and was very well equipped ...

    The property met all our needs so we booked it. As our stay was approaching, we read the reviews and became quite concerned at the reported lack of cleanliness. We messaged the owners before we came to see if we should bring our own cleaning products to tackle this issue, but we were advised that the property had recently been taken over by new management so we shouldn’t need to bring any cleaning products. They were right. The property was spotless when we arrived and was very well equipped with everything that we needed for our stay, even the dogs were catered for. The house is absolutely beautiful and is in a great location. We would definitely return and recommend this property to others. The only downside was that some members of our group found their mattress to be uncomfortable, but we recognise that this is subjective and other visitors may feel differently. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and it seems that positive changes have been made since some of the previous negative reviews regarding the cleanliness.
