The well-kept house is located in a quiet cul-de-sac, a few meters from the dog-park and, a 15-min stroll along the river to the town, or 10 minutes' walk along the road. A really lovely surprise was the house being heated for our arrival, along with the complementary treats and tote bag!

The accommodation is excellent -- clean, spacious and comfortable. The house has a well-appointed kitchen and BBQ, with a lovely garden. Our hosts provided coffee for the plunger, licorice and dog treats, so the house is obviously pet friendly. Our two families had a wonderful weekend there; highly recommended. ##### MICHELLE S.

This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rowena D. 1 Oct 2015 #### Classy, spacious & premium quality We have stayed before at Tyntynder Lodge, their other property. This time as there were more of us we took Tessie House. It is fabulous. Everything we wanted was here. We had a big family dinner and there was easily enough space for all us - and of all generations. My family told me they were the most comfortable beds they have ever slept in - they even asked for the brand of bed. We plan to make this an annual get together as it suits the whole family so well with so many bathrooms.
