"We enjoyed our stay in the property. It was well equipped, had very comfortable beds, and was in a good location. Bachcare, the agent, were responsive, when required. The only negatives were the intermittent hot water in the shower (everywhere else the hot water was fine) and the very neglected garden area."

"The place was clean and well appointed. The car park is very small and not easy to use. The screen door is difficult to unlock.N Brighton is not a very exciting place "

"Property was not as described in the desription. The house was relatively clean with clean sheets in the beds. We stayed for 5 nights as a family of 8 and it was roomy enough for the whole family.

"It was a real privilege to stay at Lyddington. The cottage is comfortable and well provisioned, the host amiable and the setting something that Capability Brown could have imagined. It was truly a charming and relaxing time"

"Great place to stay while attending a clinic at Scott O'Malley horsemanship, which was based 10 minutes away. Great facilities thank you!"

"Cute cottage, easy access and parking. Lovely new kitchen and bathroom. Overall cottage needs some maintenance work e.g. one of the bedroom doors didn’t shut, the second bedroom is quite small for two beds. The grounds could do with a bit of work as well. "
