1 Clarkes Lane Reviews

Lovely house and a great annexe, both well equipped with everything you need. The games room was a great addition to spend some time playing ping pong and darts. Lovely log burner to come into after spending some time sitting outside having a few drinks around the table cooking a bbq and enjoying the hot tub. The beds were super comfy, melted into the mattress at night. A lovely pubrestaurant just a couple of minutes walk from the accommodation and plenty of fresh walks to go on around and near the house. Will definitely be back in the near future.
This property is magnificent. We took a family break away there with inlaws and our dog for several nights. The property has all amenities necessary for a nice break away and more. The games room had darts and a ping pong table which is great for both kids and adults. We all enjoyed the hot tub to relax in and this was cleaned on a daily basis by the property maintenance people. To add, the Annex was a great addition for us as this allowed for the family to have privacy were needed. Overall, stunning property and we are looking to book again next year.

Number 1 Clark Lane was a fantastic place, spotlessly clean. Not too far to go sightseeing around the area. The welcome packs were amazing, and the little house in the grounds was beautiful too. We will definitely come back in the future, thank you so much, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
A fantastic house. Everything was of a high standard. It was spotlessly clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Beds were comfortable and toiletries provided were high end, The large jacuzzi was set up for us when we arrived and there was plenty of out door seating along with a BBQ. The location was great with a pub a couple of minutes walk away and a shop a few minutes drive that sold everything and had its own coffee shop . The welcome pack was also a nice surprise! Robes and slippers were provided plus towels and flip flops for the jacuzzi. One small problem for us was that the front gate and wall were not secure enough for our dogs so we kept them on their leads. However the dog towel and treats were much appreciated. Overall we had a great stay and would certainly return and recommend.
