James was very helpful and responded quickly to my questions.
The house is lovely - about 100 years old set I a lovely garden. The beds are all comfortable and the sheets new, crisp, clean and of a high thread count!
There are lots of interesting historical family photos and documents to enjoy. The house has lots of character with lead light Windows, a sweeping timber staircase, an in ground well from the late 1800s, pressed tin ceilings etc etc.
The kitchen was clean and well equipped. Guests share the kitchen with James and his carer (Hi Ann!) but it is no inconvenience at all!
The only shortfall relates to the electricity supply & the heating in the house. The open fires aren't in use and it was so cold / wet we had to rely on electrical heaters which when used at the same time as kettle / microwave kept tripping the fuse. James was quick to fix it each time but it was still a bit annoying (amusing!). Hopefully he will be able to get the fires back in operation which would have made our stay so much more comfortable.
Even with the heating issues, I still believe that it is great value for money.
I would love to stay there in summer - sit in the gazebo or under the eaves - presumably the pool would be in operation?
