Very disappointed.
Pros:

The location and the courtyard set up.

Cons:

Cobwebs, so little tea and coffee bits, radiators not in during night and the portable heater was faulty and dangerous stated for 1 minute and turned off. Inside the heater sparking and dangerous. Water in morning was tepid. No members of staff onsite the whole time there. So couldn’t speak to anyone about issues. Sent messages to place to find out how to book in and still haven’t received reply. The whole play needs updating. Furniture from Mid century.

Lovely location, basic amenities. Will be a lovely stay if updated.
Pros:

The property is in a beautiful location and the structure is picturesque. The bed was very comfortable.

Cons:

The rooms were quite dated and not very clean.
There were marks on the walls and dust. The curtains were hanging off the rail and the shower ran cold for the second guest.
The toilet had to be continuously flushed with the handle for it to work.
We had to fix the wiring on the tv for it to work.

Disappointing standard; room decor and accommodation very tired and not as shown in the pictures.
Pros:

linen and towels were clean and location is good.

Cons:

The overall standard of accommodation is poor and has not been looked after or maintained.(property appears up for sale). Of the dozens of properties we have booked with booking.com this alone has fallen below expectations, hence the poor review. The room provided is not to the standard in the photos (and was not the room upgrade booking.com had offered), the decor is dated and tired and there was damage to the walls, external door and both chairs had stains. The mattress was too small for the bed frame (making getting in and out quite difficult) and the frame was wobbly and squeeked every time you moved. There was a constant dripping sound from the room next door.The bathroom sink was ok to start with but then stopped draining away.

Clean but loud and property doesn't reapond
Pros:

Room was nice, very English country vibe and it was clean

Cons:

I messaged the property twice, I have a medical condition that requires me to elevate my head to sleep so I asked for extra pillows, none provided, message not responded to.
The room has accomodation upstairs and all night you could just hear people walking around on creaky floors, hardly slept a wink.
