“Nice English mansion with kitchen, swimming pool and style in beautiful surroundings”
Nice location in beautiful surroundings in real English mansion style. We had unexpectantly a whole kitchen for us personal use (as other people did not arrive) and a nice garden with a swimming pool with evening sun.

“Very pleasant stay at a very fair price. Use of kitchen facilities a bonus”
You can use kitchen facilities which is a real bonus for a bnb. Toaster, kettle, Microwave and fridge. Although breakfast is included I'd recommend taking your own cereal unless you like coco pops! Also take bread for the toaster, luckily I had some by chance, as only crossants and dried long life crisp breads are supplied for the preserves and butter.

“Excellent host”
Rowland was very considerate, having a friendly chat. He offered to make me a simple meal instead of me going out to eat.
