Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### David P. 4 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### All the facilities you could want in a small space Quite a remote location. Friendly owner - check-in information from Vrbo non-existent apart from the address, (I tried to get my info from the website - perhaps I should have downloaded the APP) but fortunately the owner was there to show us the ropes. This was a great spot for launching yourself onto Bristol and the surrounds, and the countryside is lovely. The design of the property was impressive in that everything (just about) that you might need was provided but fitted into a small space, so it is hard to criticise but I felt like Alice in Wonderland having drunk the potion that made me big. My partner was on the other hand quite happy despite not being able to spread out so much. Nice, fairly quiet, single track roads to cycle from and to the property if you like that sort of thing (I do!). Quite a peaceful location and if the weather is good then an outside area with tables and chairs was provided so that you could enjoy looking across the fields at the animals (Lamas, sheep and horses). ##### David P.

Only shower cabin was too small to move around in. No other guests and owners on holiday, so very quiet, especially in the evenings. ##### Evelijn T.
