The Farmhouse

5 Customer Reviews

• "This really was a lovely house with beautiful decor and a peaceful setting."

  The beds were very comfortable and bathroom facilities, excellent. The little thoughtful touches like wine and toiletries were much appreciated. The owner was friendly and we got to meet Wally! I think the caravans should be disclosed in the listing though, as some people would mind. They weren't occupied, so it wasn't a problem for us.

• "My family of 4 and our dog stayed her 14th Feb- 28th Feb 2025."

  Upon arrival the key retrieval was simple and easy no problems at all. The gardener was there he was lovely and chatty. The farmhouse was spotless. Plenty of toiletries left neatly out and nice fresh folded towels. Beautiful decorated and clean. The beds were super comfortable. I was able to log in to my tv subscriptions via the smart tvs there. The farmhouse warmed uo very quickly and held it's heat well. The bath was heavenly to relax in. We did have have an issue with boiler whilst we were there.But the owner and his team resolved the issue as fast as possible and after this we had no more issues. Martin's extremely helpful and done his best with everything. Cooking facilities were good and washing machine was a bonus. My dog was allowed to run on the grounds he had the best time we walked down to the little woodland area. My family brought their fishing gear and spent time at the lake. Overall we had a fantastic stay very comfortable and welcoming.

• "The bedrooms, bedding and towels were excellent."

  Lots of toothpaste and toothbrushes However the kitchen is poorly equipped. We had to buy spoons, frying pan roasting trays and wine glasses. The saucepans available have been scratched and rusting. The washing machine has been left fully loaded with wet linen and towels. The insides of the cupboards was dirty covered with stains and crumbs. We had no cutlery on the first night of our arrival and no instructions have been left about the hidden draw compartment. When we telephoned the agency on Sunday night, there was no reply. We had telephoned back on Monday morning and once we have stated the issues, Kevin promised us he would contact the local team and update us. That did not happen at all. Just by the pure luck, one of the workers on the camp side told us about the hidden cutlery drawer but alas - still no spoons. No washing up liquid and no basics. We had to buy tea towels , sponges, ect. The The property is lacking in basic kitchen utensils. Never book this property. Our stay has been spoiled by the lack of care and some genuine hospitality.

• "The kitchen was far too small to cater for 8 people."

  It also lacked in the basic essentials which included bottle/tin opener, sharp knives, dessert spoons, glasses (for wine & cold drinks), baking trays, & serving plates. There were no place mats anywhere throughout the house suitable for hot food or drinks.The shower didn't work properly and the front door handle had rusted & was falling off. My grandson got locked in the toilet as the lock was faulty. There was no recycling. The beds and mattresses were comfortable and clean as was the rest of the house... Overall disappointing as I spent my Christmas eve rushing to the shops to buy the basic essentials that should have been provided in the house, & on Christmas day i was driving around Jaywick looking for sharp knife to buy so we could cut the meat!! The penknife I keep in my car for camping came in very handy...

  New to being rented out and everything was sparkling. Nice touches included - toothbrushes, water bottles etc.
