Comfortable House
The house was very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay. It was easy to find and well located, we had a good meal at The Wychwood. The house was not as clean as we would have expected, quite dusty. The hot water was incredibly hot and the showers difficult to adjust which made them difficult to use. We felt that there were not really enough mugs or glasses for a house sleeping eight people.

The best choice for relaxation and meditation
We really liked the place in terms of design, quiet location, and the availability of basic household needs. Breakfast was also provided (eggs, milk, cakes), in addition to a coffee machine, microwave, and bread toaster.There was washing machine, dryer and iron. Having a sun room is a great idea, as well as an outdoor dining table, a grocery store nearby, and a bus stop in front of the house. The hosts are very helpful and quick to solve problems. In short, it was like we were in a beautiful dream.

Comfortable stay with great location
We had a lovely stay at Myrtle house over Christmas. The house was very well equipped and of a good size to ensure all 5 of us weren't under each others feet. The bedrooms were all a good size with extremely comfortable beds and bedding. The Internet speed was fast considering we were in a village which please our son as he could play on his games console. All in all, we had a great Christmas and family get together.

Nice place, but needs some work
Overall the place was fine. It's in a pretty area and had plenty of room for our family of seven. Nice touches like wood in the fireplace and eggs/milk in the refrigerator were really appreciated. Be advised that there is a washing machine for laundry, but no dryer or drying rack. Owners should at least buy a drying rack for the house so laundry has a place to air-dry. The house could really use a deep cleaning. It wasn't terribly gross or anything, but it needs more than just tidying up between renters. We also had the bizarre problem of the shower water being incredibly hot and actually a bit difficult to turn down to a comfortable temperature. We eventually kind of got it working, but owners should take a look at shower water temperature and make sure its clear how to turn it down. At it was, it was fine, but if they fix those couple of things this place would really be outstanding.

Needs a thorough clean :/
The house is in a good location but it really needs some care taken to it before it is habitable. The major issue in the house is the mould. There is heavy mould in several of the rooms, which I believe affected our group to the point the majority were coughing when we left. When we entered the property we were hit with a smell of mould / damp. It is really not hygienic or good for your health to be sleeping in a room with mould. There is also a heavy amount of dust, cob webs and dead insects around. This is quite surprising that the house was not properly cleaned, since check in time was not until 5pm on the Friday, and check out was at 10am. This is the earliest and latest time I’ve seen yet the house was still dirty. We also messaged to see if we could get a slightly later check out (in advance of seeing the property..), but didn’t receive a response.

Lovely and Comfortable
Myrtle House was a joy to stay in. Received a personal phone call from the house manager to let me know the house was ready and to give him a ring if I had any trouble with anything. There was a nice little welcome in the fridge; my kids really enjoyed the biscuits and milk. The garden was so lovely! Even though it's close to the road and therefore a bit noisy to sit out in the garden, the privacy hedge and beautiful flowers more than make up for it. The beds are very comfortable. With four bedrooms and plenty of living space we had room to spare. Highly recommend.
