We found the property very good for eight adults. Plenty of outdoor comfy seats. We were happy with the quiet position and will hopefully go back in the future.

Lovely maintained property in lovely grounds in a quiet rural location but within easy distance of visiting places around Oswestry, Shrewsbury & Wales. The cleaning of the property could have been better but the property had everything you could wish for in it. A lovely Easter break & the weather was better than forecast.

We stayed over the Christmas week with different family members arriving for 2 or 3 nights. There was a tree already trimmed which was lovely. The underfloor heating was great and the hot tub brilliant. Really appreciated having 4 ensuit bathrooms. Appreciate it was winter but the tennis court was full of moss and dips so not safe. The settees wereRead more big enough but rather uncomfortable. The fridge and dishwashwas too small . But all in all we enjoyed the stay. Hide

This is a well-equipped spacious lodge in a good location for eg walks, castles. Only three lodges so was quiet (but may be noisier in school holidays). We enjoyed hot tub and tennis court. It was let down by its cleanliness in some areas - but previous positive comments in visitors book suggest may have been a one-off so, if sure it wouldn't happeRead moren again, we would happily come back. Owner quickly sorted out non-working WiFi but it's slow so can browse internet but not eg stream or work. Hide

Really good spacious accommodation for our family group; children really enjoyed the on-site play equipment and hot tub. Definitely 5 star potential, but let down slightly during our stay by some maintenance and cleanliness issues. Good local shop in nearby Kinnerley.
