excellent holiday house,exactly as presented and the pool in the hot weather was fantactic !

Fantastic house clean & plenty of space. Beautiful area although we didn’t venture out much as we had beautiful weather & enjoyed the pool & BBQ. Thanks to the host Sue for everything

Brilliant company with some amazing large properties for large groups. Lots of photos and details on each well equipped property. Options for extras to make your stay individual and special. Good website and excellent communication. Easy booking process.Only negative was wanting to charge too much for day visitors as one of the options.

We visited for a hen weekend and it was perfect: spacious , clean, beautifully decorated and had just the right vibe. Organisation and communication was also good.

Everything was 1st class.. everything you need for a family gathering we have 2 autistic children and they both loved it.

We stayed at Ramscombe in West Bagborough for seven nights in June, and unfortunately our experience fell well below our expectations.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the property had not been cleaned to an acceptable standard. We found hairs on the bedding, the toilets were dirty, and there were several broken fixtures and fittings throughout the house. Overall, the property felt tired, neglected, and in need of significant maintenance and a thorough refresh.

The outside areas were equally disappointing. They were dirty, unswept, and lacked the level of care you would expect from a holiday property of this standard.

One of the biggest disappointments was discovering that the bifold doors leading to the swimming pool were broken and could not be opened. When we contacted the owner, we were told that they had already been broken for around three weeks before our stay. We were never informed of this in advance, despite it being a significant issue that affected our enjoyment of the property. Had we known beforehand, we would have been able to make an informed decision about whether to proceed with our booking.

To make matters worse, the house manager was rude, dismissive, and extremely unhelpful when we raised our concerns. Rather than feeling valued as guests, we felt that our legitimate complaints were treated as an inconvenience.

Overall, we were very disappointed. The property has great potential and is in a lovely location, but it is clearly in need of investment, better maintenance, and much higher standards of cleanliness and customer service. Based on our experience, we would not return or recommend it in its current condition.

It’s a lovely old house, in the countryside. We really enjoyed a long weekend with a hen group here. The rooms were all very comfy and there’s lots of living space, plus the hot tub and huge gardens. We’ll definitely be back!

The house was lovely, the weather was perfect, the outdoor space was great lots of seating and umbrellas. The pool was the perfect temperature

We spent a wonderful weekend on the Island. There were three generations ranging in age from 8 to 80. From our greeting on Friday and the handing over of the keys for the two boats till Monday when we returned the keys and boats, everything was catered for.

We stayed on one of the super-hot weekends in July and first task was to cool the house and especially the bedrooms. There was a cooling breeze, and every room had a fan, so we were quickly able to drop the temperature. However, we spent most of the weekend outdoors. There are groups of loungers in various places and hammocks so we could always find something in the shade. There are two rows of picnic tables, one under the trees for family dining and another row closer to the house – breakfast and games. There’s even an undercover gazebo by the Wonky Bar to retreat to for drinks and chats.

Add in a hot tub, checked daily and an outside kitchen and barbecue and this property really has everything. Loads of outdoor crockery and glasses (so no breakages) and then masses of indoor crockery, cutlery, pots, pans, huge serving dishes and even a pizza over. This house lacks nothing.

The only time we spent indoors was when we made use of the amazing games rooms, full of table games, darts and board games. Something for everyone. And we together enjoyed watching England beat Norway on the huge television screen. The beautiful dining room was untouched.

There really was no reason to leave the island apart from miscalculations on the milk front but we did visit Hardwick Watersports and most of the party had a thrilling do’nut ride – twice round the lake.

We have done these big family times together before and this one did not disappoint.

We stayed at Holemoor Stables and, overall, the property itself was lovely. We had a great holiday and enjoyed our time there.

Unfortunately, our departure experience overshadowed what had otherwise been a very positive stay.

The advertised check-out time was 10:00 am. However, at around 9:30 am, the cleaning team entered the property while my family and I were still inside. They did not knock on the door or contact us beforehand. They walked straight into the kitchen and began cleaning while we were still packing our belongings.

With 18 guests staying at the property, this created unnecessary stress and made us feel that our privacy was not respected. We ended up rushing to leave because the cleaners were already moving around the house before our check-out time had arrived.

To their credit, the booking team apologised for our experience and said they would raise the matter with the owner. However, the owner declined to offer any form of compensation or goodwill gesture, despite acknowledging our complaint.

Separately, during our stay, we accidentally damaged the induction hob. We accepted full responsibility immediately and agreed to pay the outstanding replacement cost without dispute.

While we take responsibility for our mistake, I also believe guests should be able to enjoy their privacy until the advertised check-out time. Entering the property before check-out, without knocking or notifying guests, is not the level of service I would expect from a holiday accommodation.

Overall, the property was excellent, but the way our departure was handled means I cannot give a higher rating.

easy process
