The house has a good layout, nicely proportioned and is in a good location. It was clean and tidy, with only a few things that didn't work as they should.

The magician lives next door!

Lacks some kitchen equipment. Frying pans. Lemon squeezer tea strainer. BBQ tongs. Lacks a garden table to eat from. Only coffee tables. Found the garden umbrella in the garage on the last day. Would have been useful to know this earlier. The mattresses on the twin beds in the loft need upgrading. They are very uncomfortable. All 3 bathrooms need toilet roll holders. Odd not to have them?. No where outside to dry costumes & towels without taking the airier out _ & then there is no room to sit. Very small yard. Not shown on the adverts. WORST PART WAS A HORRID RUDE NEIGHBOUR Who shouted at us if we placed one foot o. His property. I would not retiurn to this property because of all of the above.

Great well equipped house

Great location and very well equipped. Escape to St Ives team very helpful and problems solved quickly. However, the cleanliness of the house was very mediocre with dirty towels found in one bedroom on arrival and one of the toilets needed fixing, which was done the next day. Otherwise an enjoyable stay.
