Nice historic location.

House was quite chilly/cold in the house. The heating did not seem to work. And in one of the toilet there was very strong smell of chlorine or some cleaning substance.

Lovely comfortable house, nice welcome.

Location was great for a summer visit but access was somewhat inconvenient in regards to gates and approach mainly dye to the weather at this time of year but particularly the lack of mobile service and WiFi was nit good for working visit.
