We booked this house because of the excellent reviews provided by previous guests - unfortunately however, it wasn’t for us and we didn’t enjoy your stay.
Yes, the property has charm and beautiful & eclectic fittings and Anthony is a good host - but this didn’t make up for the property feeling somewhat neglected (eg couch, mattress, garden) and in need of a deep clean.
We stayed for only 2 of the 5 nights due to the above reasons, but mainly because the extremely good weather made the upstairs of the property unbearably stuffy & hot and our kids couldn’t sleep at night during our stay (this was outside of the hosts control of course!).
There is also another rental in the garden / grounds, which we were not aware of at the time of our booking (as this is a new rental) as well as the hosts dwellings. We would have preferred more privacy in the garden space (especially to enjoy the good weather).
