Travelled with family and small children
This property has wonderful views. Comfy beds. The floors and log burner were covered in dust. The quilt cover had no presstuds that actually stuck together so during the night the cover was nearly off the quilt which was quite stained. The glass dinning table was definitely not child friendly very easy to knock into the corners for little ones. Although mentioned in the property description the beam going across the entrance to the top bedroom is not comfortable (realise this is structural but still not ideal). Bath plug very difficult to remove when bath is full, also gruby on tiles beneath radiator in bathroom. So can't deny the views are amazing, but for the price I would definitely expect more in the overall presentation of the place. On first appearance all seems nice but the longer you're there the more faults you notice.
