Frankie, the host, was friendly and accommodating. Would happily visit again. ##### Jacqueline Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen N. 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This house is lovely and the host Frankie has it decorated to match many tastes and it is very comfortable and has absolutely everything you need and lots of things you don't realise you need, The beds are comfortable ensuring a goodnights rest. The bathrooms are spacious and everything is supplied. The kitchen was so well stocked it was home from home. The play room for the children was fabulous, our boys had so much fun.This was the first time the family had all been together for years and a great time was had by all. We were a group of mixed ages from 66 to 3.The house is fairly central to get to see the sights and is well worth a stay.The only niggle was the lack of a banister at the bottom of the stairs down to the kitchen, one of our boys wasn't paying attention and nearly went over the edge so extra adult attention was given for the rest of the stay.The garden is smashing and is a great relaxation area, plenty of room for kids to play, and a fab place for adult relaxation of an evening.Would definitely stay again . ##### Kathleen N.
