Fiona 
“It was so lovely to stay at Hillside as it’s set in such beautiful surroundings.”
The house was as it said and catered well for a family of 14 the kitchen was well equipped with two good sized fridges and also a good freezer. There was also a good walk in pantry. The beds were all clean and the duvets good togs. The house definitely needs some TLC my husband had to clue one of the draws back together I’m also 6ft and who ever does the cleaning must be shorter as all the cobwebs were just above 5ft level……and there were definitely plenty of them! Hooks in the shower ...

The house definitely needs some TLC my husband had to clue one of the draws back together I’m also 6ft and who ever does the cleaning must be shorter as all the cobwebs were just above 5ft level……and there were definitely plenty of them! Hooks in the shower rooms would have been great because there was no where to hang towels. The taps in the room opposite the big lounge were the wrong way round so hot water coming out of the one that said cold, we had two small children in that room so it could have been quite nasty had we not realised. However even after all that said we loved our stay and it certainly wouldn’t put us off booking again.
