The house was lovely and suited our 2 families for a great long weekend stay. Unfortunately, Jellis Craig's service was non-existent and we ended up having to do their job for them.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was very clean and furnished beautifully, alfresco area with heater was very nice, however the kitchen in particular lacked many items necessary for a group stay. There were no salad bows, platters, salad servers or mixing bowls. Basically only dinner sets and mugs/glasses supplied. It also seemed that only the base jets in the spa worked. Jellis Craig staff were also poor communicators.

Reviewer Comments:
A modern house with plenty of space. Walking distance to the Main Street.Everything is supplied that you could think of.Very comfy beds.We booked this property due to the outside space - spa and undercover outside seating area. Unfortunately, the spa was dangerously hot and not working correctly. This was fixed at the end of our second day but was disappointing that we couldn’t make the most of it.The fire and TV in the outdoor seating area also didn’t work which did affect our enjoyment of that area of the house and the overall experience. This should be a 5 out of 5 and for the price paid, but was sadly not.The agents were incredibly responsive and very supportive as best they could so that is amazing customer service to be recognised.
