Country Stay

The description of the accommodation was accurate. I was not under any illusions and it fitted my needs. I was grateful to be able to bring my dogs. Sharing bathroom/toilet with owners was a little disconcerting, to find a middle of the night toilet stop meant I had to flush the toilet before I used it.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We booked thinking it was separate from the main house (like a sleep-out), but it turned out to be a room in the owners’ house. Kristen was very pleasant but it wasn’t what we wanted so we didn’t stay.
