We were lucky enough to be the first guests at Hedgefield house! Because of that most items were brand new! Pots, pans, trays, furniture, towels, curtains.. you name it... new! Other items nearly new! Everything 100% luxury and quality.
Everything was provided. Dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, iron, and all cleaning products, toilet rolls, towels etc. You really don't need to bring anything from home!
The house is spacious/large. At times we lost each other! The utility room is huge and doubles as a dog bedroom. With 2 toilets downstairs and 4 upstairs.. it's perfect for lots of guests.
The kitchen is superb. Quality oven, 5 burner hob and the latest Samsung fridge. Loads of work space and loads of pans and cutlery. Ended up making lots of home cooked foods! (Especially as the local butchers had amazing meat, cakes, bread and veg!)
Electric remote Velux windows and blinds also make this a bit different to the norm.
A huge internet/smart TV is opposite the newly created 10 seater table.
The pool and sauna are a real touch of luxury.. and kept very clean. Inflatables, water pistols etc.. will make anyone's day!
In the large lounge there are 2 comfy sofas.. and a purple pool table. So another great space.
A snug room with large tv and Sony Blu Ray cinema system (And a huge collection of DVDs and CDs) will keep you occupied. (Look out of the monkey curtain rail ends!)
The artwork around the house is amazing. Interesting glassware, paintings and sculptures which are all beautiful.
Tea, coffee, dishwasher and wash tablets etc.. all provided. So only pack what you want to wear!
Upstairs.. plenty of storage. Cupboards and drawer everywhere. Rooms are all ensuite.. with a mix if wet room type showers, jet bath, his and hers sinks etc.
Beds amazingly comfy and beautiful fabrics and materials used throughout.
Two master bedrooms lead into a roof balcony. Large enough for patio seats and tables.. looking over the pool and countryside.
A gate at the bottom of the garden leads to a public park and then walks over the fields. Be aware the garden is dog friendly.. but down one side the fence does have a gap low down.. and a small dog could easily escape. A hook in the ground does allow you to tie up your pet if need be!
What is there to dislike about the house and grounds? Nothing!
Even the huge garage is superb. Shelving with various garden toys, bike hooks etc. But also really great for storing your car/unpacking/packing up in the rain... as it leads into the utility room.
Fab stay made all the better for the care and consideration given by the owners. There at the end of a phone.. and ready to sort out anything.
Fresh flowers were in the kitchen and bedrooms. A lovely touch.
Various card and board games are ready to play.. so a great family place!
It felt very special being the guests here for a week. I hope that others will feel the same. My family loved every minute!
