    “We had a lovely stay here.”

    We literally booked at 9.30am on Monday morning to arrive at 3pm that day and the house was ready for us: clean, tidy and warm. On the first night, we had a few issues with the lights and we thought there may have been an error code on the hot tub. The owners arrived within 10 minutes and sorted everything for us - it was just a lightbulb and no concerns with the hot tub.

    We literally booked at 9.30am on Monday morning to arrive at 3pm that day and the house was ready for us: clean, tidy and warm. On the first night, we had a few issues with the lights and we thought there may have been an error code on the hot tub. The owners arrived within 10 minutes and sorted everything for us - it was just a lightbulb and no concerns with the hot tub. Before we arrived, we were concerned about possible building works next door which had led to a previous bad review but Sykes contacted the owners who said the works had finished. Day one was fine but we could hear some works on day two. These did not bother us though as they weren’t very loud and could only be heard when we were out in the garden but the owner popped across with a bottle of wine to apologise (we had not mentioned the noise to the owner at all.) This was quite unnecessary but was a really lovely gesture considering the owners could do nothing about it. The house was a really good size and the utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer was super handy. The front room was really spacious and the three sofas gave us ample room to spread out. We loved the large kitchen table - it set the scene for a dramatic game of Farmopoly - the boys loved the alternate version of Monopoly and the other games left for us. All in all, we would highly recommend Waldegrave Barn.
