  • "Wonderful house."

    Lovely welcome pack and the cake was unreal!!! Really well equipped property with a fantastic games room and hot tub. The property is very spacious with 3 large double bedrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could wish for. The whole house was very clean when we arrived. There were 5 adults and 2 dogs and we never felt on top of each other. The driveway easily accommodated our 3 cars. The only downside is the car can scrape on the driveway if fully laden. the driveway could do with a bit of work to prevent this. The local pub, The Stilton Cheese Inn is a great dog friendly family run pub serving excellent food and only a short walk. We visited Melton Mowbray and Rutland Waters, both easily accessible. We would definitely recommend this house to anyone

  • "The house was ideal for us."

    It's in an excellent location on the outskirts of Somerby which is a beautiful village. On arrival we found the welcome package of bread eggs milk and a beautiful cake . The property is well equipped and very comfortable and clean . Due to the circumstances of our stay we did not spend a lot of time at the house and probably didn't make the most of the facilities.The hot tub looked clean and well maintained and the games room has a full sized table tennis table , a pool table and dart board. There are plenty of good walks for dogs and the local pub 'The Stilton Cheese ' is definitely worth a visit . We would have no hesitation in booking this house again if the opportunity arose.

  • "Our best stay ever!"

    The house is gorgeous with everything you could need and even more. Very warm and clean house, smells wonderful. You feel hospitality in every detail started with a huge welcome package with cake, milk, butter, eggs and bread and finished with wonderful aromatic hand soap. Very strong water pressure in the shower and hot tube! And the location of the house is very good. You can find several parks to walk with kids and dogs 15-20 minutes by car and also buy fresh milk, eggs and other farm products. I'm sure it's much better in summer time as there are water park and aqua park very near. Hope to come back again one day! And 100 percent recommend!
