Give it a try!

We stayed here for 4 nights and booked a luxury room. Our mistake for not reading the property details as there was no air-con and it was very uncomfortable during the nights without this as we ended up with quite warm weather which was a bonus for the days that we did stay. When we arrived and checked in we noticed that the door was not closing properly which was resolved straight away and dirty mugs had been left there too, again this was resolved straight away but no apology for this. The bed seemed comfy but one of us did end up with slight back pain. We requested room service on a daily basis and fresh towels or toilet rolls were put in the room. Other than this nothing else was topped up. The tea was low or next to nothing and the bedding wasn't changed even though we accidently dropped a strawberry on this and there was a little stain on there. The breakfast was okay. They had no vegetarian sausages from day 2 and the eggs were not how we asked for on the last morning. I was very pleased to hear that they had oak milk but the latte was not good. Hot drinks apart from the hot chocolate were not good. We enjoyed our stay here and may return in winter months unless air-con is installed before we go again. A fan could be an option to offer your guests.

Beautiful garden areas and our room in the main house was comfortable, clean and tastefully furnished. Staff very helpful and breakfast good. Check in not until 4pm and then check out at 10am; would be nice if extended. No hot water in the morning (also heard two other rooms report this issue) which spoilt an otherwise enjoyable stay.

Really lovely stay here. Staff were friendly, helpful and worked together well as a team which shone through. We stayed in a cottage room in the garden which was well appointed, clean, spacious and had an outdoor verandah area for sitting. It was peaceful and well maintained. Other parts of the grounds were not so well kept but as a whole it was fine. A little off the beaten track but the food was excellent and generous so no need to go elsewhere.
