Unfortunately this house is not suitable in winter. It is uncomfortable as it is incredibly cold with no way of adequately heating the space. There are oil heaters in the bedrooms that are ok but the living areas and kitchen are not heated. There is one fireplace but we were not left kindling or dry timber. While Damien was very responsive to messages and guided us to firelighters I feel it is not accurate to say this home has heating. The house itself is a lovely character home with beautiful views. It is well equipped with games etc and would be a good place to stay in warmer months. The bathrooms need updating or a deep clean as they are mouldy and the second bathroom needs lights. The rest of the house was clean and well furnished. I really don’t like writing negative reviews but we could not enjoy our stay because of the cold. The first night we played pool in snow coats but the novelty wore off. We couldn’t use all the living areas. We paid for a large home as a group of adults but we simply couldn’t use the spaces. Such a shame as the place would be lovely with a simple installation of a few reverse cycle units.
