A beautiful house and location. Although slope from carpark, and the house stairs are not for the faint hearted. The house was a little chilly (but it was a very cold week), but the owners changed the heat settings immediately on request. They were extremely helpful throughout the week. Would stay again again.

What a wonderful place to celebrate a special birthday! The views are amazing, there is lots to do nearby and the house is magnificent. The kitchen is really well equipped and it was great to have such a big dining table.

Lynhurst is a truly lovely well equipped house in a spectacular spot and accommodated our group very well. The bedrooms and bedlinen were lovely and everywhere was spotless. There were a few issues with the heating though which hopefully will be addressed in time for the next occupants.

The house was better than any of us imagined, we were a family group with 4 dogs. The views from the house were amazing and so dog friendly, the kitchen was well stocked and we were so lucky with the weather we used the 2 BBQ. All the bedrooms were clean comfy and airy. The only downside was we had to go home

Everything was great, super facilities, well equipped kitchen plus lovely, generous welcome hamper. Dont worry too much about the fact that the car park is away from the house, the arrival and departure with bags etc, although a little challenging, is well worth it for the spacious property and super views.
