Checked in as part of a family group of 10 and it was immediately obvious that the property was not clean. Walls and skirtings were filthy, windows were dirty inside and out and covered with cobwebs and dead insects, the decking and furniture immediately outside the kitchen were covered in debris and cobwebs and had to be cleaned before they could be used. The property has a great location but overall was shabby and dirty and is definitely not 4 star.

The house is nice and in a good location.. However it is in desperate need of some new mattresses for the beds - the one on the top bunk was so threadbare it was unusable by anyone weighing more than 4 stone, and the two double beds caused back and shoulder aches in people who have never experienced any problems previously. We came away feeling tired and sore, rather than refreshed by our holiday, which was a real shame.

This is a lovely house with 5 bedrooms. There is a huge kitchen /dining room with wood burning stove, very long dining table and a wealth of equipment. We had some great family dinners in there. There is also a very large comfortable lounge with an open fire (although the fire wasn’t very effective), lots of chairs and s large sofa. The television was massive and had BT box so access to a lot of programmes and the owners had left the manuals in case of any queries which was a real help. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of drawers/wardrobe space. We has two bathrooms with sheers and another with a bath as well. There were just a couple of drawbacks - we struggled to get the house to the right temperature, it was either too hot or too cold. The house is also on a very steep hill so for anyone who is not fit the walk up from the village would be very challenging. You can go by car but the road is one way.

We enjoyed our stay at the Tower House but people should know that it is a good way up a very steep hill and would not be suitable for people who were not quite fit.. The house is lovely and the kitchen especially good for a big group of people, very well equipped. It was really helpful to be left instructions for various electrical appliances as often they can be a mystery. If we had quibbles it would be that the lighting is quite muted. I was not able to read my book in bed for the whole week as the lighting was just not good enough. Also we could have done with more towels as there is no tumble drier. These however are minor things - we really enjoyed our stay and had loads of room.

Standard of cleaning was a bit average - generally it looked as if the place could do with a proper "spring clean".. Issue with broken bed on arrival. This was dealt with very promptly by the owner but should have been noticed and rectified in advance. Lock missing on a bathroom door; lightbulbs "blown"; central island unit in kitchen beginning to fall apart etc. Cooking utensils were a bit limited for a place that sleeps 11. We struggled to cook a roast dinner due to lack of saucepan capacity etc. Also kitchen knives were fairly useless - I recognise that there is a potential issue if knives are too sharp but a knife should have some sort of cutting edge (something that only the bread knife achieved!) Overall impression was of a pleasant property in a good location. However, it was let down by the standard of presentation and maintenance.
