Beautifully restored property on this large country estate.. On arrival the house was spotlessly clean and warm. Tea, coffe, milk and biscuits were left in the kitchen too to welcome us. The kitchen and bathrooms are luxuriously high spec and the rooms are large, particularly the kitchen space, with beautiful wooden floors and underfloor heated tiles. However the lounge area is tiny and the uncomfortable sofa would not seat 6 people, despite the property sleeping 6. Sadly the cutlery, crockery and bedding is all very cheap too, diminishing the luxurious feel of the property.
Baloo is part of the original stable block adjacent to the large house which is being restored and transformed into a luxury hotel. Of course this means that there is work going on and some areas are effectively a building site, which may be off putting to some. However, noise is kept to a minimum and the friendly, helpful staff leave you alone to enjoy your stay.
Overall, a lovely property which could, with some slight tweaking be an outstanding holiday property.
