    Perfect for short stays however not set up for long stays as no washing facilities or food prep area. Bar fridge was noisy at times. The addition of a larger kitchen buffet/sideboard would be terrific as there is plenty of room to put one in.

    Pretty much everything. Our suite was the Orchard and exceeded our expectations overall. Stylish, very private and plenty of room. Communal grounds wonderful. Pool and BBQ areas excellent.

    The steps to the bedroom were steep (so couldn’t recommend to elderly or physically limited patrons) The couch cushion could do with new foam (hard to settle in fully for a cozy movie)

    Lovely setting, lovely exterior, quiet, still close enough to town. The room amenities were quaint Good sized bathroom! Absolutely lovely overall

    The property is a distance out of town and if we did not have a rental car, it could be a problem as the taxis were quite busy on the weekend we visited. I am sure most people are aware of this when they book.

    The cottage is old, but thoughtfully renovated. It is unique, clean and the bed was very comfortable. The spa bath was a bonus. We enjoyed the welcome platter and wine.

    There was no host on site, which just felt a bit odd in a property of this size. The bathroom fittings were a bit dated, although all very clean

    Charming property in the country. Beautiful grounds and pool. Comfortable bed. Felt a bit like a European villa
