    No room numbers on the doors. When special arrangements were made for me to pick up the keys, nobody was there to help, no phone was answered, only got called 4 hours later and got told that I made incorrect arrangements, however everything was confirmed TWICE over whatsapp.

    Jack was the only helpful employee that assisted when I needed help very late in the evening finding the correct room. The nature is very beautiful, but i would rather pay a bit more next time for one of the other venues in the area.

    Unit wood door could not close due to swelling( lot of rain in week before) ( security gate however did work so could secure unit)( the person that handed us the keys did advise us beforehand that the door is a problem and why). Buildings outside , garden and potplants around units need more care and attention.

    Room inside were clean , Clean white linen All utiltities in room and bathroom worked ( i e bedside lamps , lights, fan , fridge) Mosquito repellant in room were welcome and worked well .

    The owners of the property left farm workers to deal with us as clients. Poor communication.

    The place was not the same as the one on advert. On the ad it is clean and has lot's of facilities, but when we arrived there it was nothing of the sort, the place looked like it was being renovated, pool was dirty and the people who were supposed to help where not always available.

    The area is in a nice and quiet place and you can go out with friends and family

    It was bitter cold this night . The duvet was very thin and we had only one extra blanket . There was no one we could ask for another blanket as we arrived back late from a wedding. We had to sleep nearly fully dressed to stay just about warm.

    The price paid was expensive for the room. The rooms need a lot of maintenance. Our door was broken with the door stopper looking like it was worn out.

    The room was clean but very basic.

    It was okay for one night, but I won't book again unless they look better after their animals.

    As animal lovers we were so sad to see the sheep look dirty and unsheared and it really upset me because I am an animal lover and it makes me so sad to see that people neglect their animals Because the place is pet friendly, we expected that the farm animals there are taken care of. The horse looked very lonely. Horses are used to be in a herd or have at least one companion animal as a friend. We suggest you get a companion for him even if it's just a small Shetland pony.

    The view and the setting and the strawberry fields were nice to look at. The place is very peaceful Ther was no noise which was good.

    The management or staff, couldn't manage guests. Other guests booked and they were too loud, morning,noon and night. Management did nothing about that. Not considering the rest of the guests. And we asked for Ice that we never got. Even after we were promised a couple of times.

    The location is serene

    Images I saw when I booked and what we actually got was not the same. False advertising. One big room was divided by a 4 door cupboard and really not 2 rooms. Refrigerator was an old one which didn't even freeze items. Other rooms had new latest refrigerators.

    Manager was very hands on and went out of her way to make us as comfortable as possible.

    Them taking our money and not providing the service.

    I made a booking and there was a confirmation after payment was made. We told them when to expect us (arrival time). When we got to their gates, we stayed for more 2 hours and no one pitched up. We called their number countless times and no body picked up the phone and we left. There is no refund till now.
