The hot tub is amazing the waterfall and river was so so good and lush to cool down in and build dams the boys loved it x x
My only thing which is not negative is bring your camping chairs as there is limited garden furniture and we had our parents with us and we wished we brought them as we did a fire and marshmallows etc and no comfy seats to chill in evening outside x x star gazing is also amazing in the garden there is a big deck at the bottom.
Beds are comfy x2 showers and bath which is great as there were 10 of us plus our doggies xx
We had the best time and we have nothing negative only thing was I would have loved a hammock that would have been lush xxx
Defo coming bk next year the kids survived and had the best time with no tv and no wifi xx
The tv was taken over by granddad lol !!!!!
Thank you so so much guys xx

the house itself is big and it's nicer than it appears on the photos. Bathrooms and basement a little dated but to be expected for a building that old and it was still comfortable.
