Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy

Wished we stayed longer

The property and grounds are beautiful and it was a great house to relax and play. We made use of the pool, foosball table, chess set and hosts the most comfortable couches. It was only a 5min drive yo the town centre.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The decor of the house was fun & interesting. The beds were excellent & the linen chrisp & clean.Unfortunately, the maintenance inside & out was not up to par. There was only 1 champagne glass in a house that sleeps 10 people! the gas bottle ran out after 10 minutes with no replacement & I had to ask for the grass to be mown so we could use the grounds. The windows was very dirty on the outside. It's a great pity as the house could be the palace its name represents
