The listing photographs shows you the other properties that can be rented through St Giles house, so it can be a little confusing as to what the property facilities are. Also, we were emailed our dietary requirements and I replied that we were wheat intolerant and we required oat milk, we had cows milk and a cob loaf, delicious if you can eat it! The jam was delicious though. Also, the listing says that dogs are not allowed and they are, so a bit confusing! ##### Sarah C.
