Laura's venue is nice and accommodated us well. However there were a few issues that should be flagged.
One is the general cleanliness/state of the place. You can tell that it's been renovated fairly recently but not to a good standard. The rooms were dusty, there are scuff marks on the wall and one of the shower drains just does not work - meaning we had one night of mopping up water from the floor with towels. There's also a leak coming from the extension roof - which clearly has been like that for some time and is being ignored.
The bedrooms are ok - but a bit lacklustre. Very simple and lacking in soft furnishings. But understand that's not an essential - more of a nice to have. The bedding was clean but the rooms were dusty.
One of the biggest problems with our stay, however, was when we arrived. We turned up and all the lights were on, the key safe was open and the door was unlocked with the keys on the mat. We checked the property and no one was around. Although you could tell it has been tidied up - there were two used spliffs on the kitchen table. We don't know what had happened but clearly this place is in need of a bit of TLC and better management.
We were content with our stay but all of these factors combined meant that we couldn't not flag these issues. Hope that they're resolved soon as it's got great potential!
