Guests say
Woodend Bungalow is highly praised for its spaciousness, comfort, and suitability for family gatherings. Guests appreciate the welcoming touches, games room, and beautiful views. While some minor issues are noted, the overall experience is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.
The property is consistently described as spotlessly clean, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciate.
The bungalow offers good views and proximity to amenities, though some guests mention noise from nearby kennels and reversing machinery. The location is generally well-received for its views and convenience.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the living spaces roomy, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, some mention issues with dining chairs and steps that could affect comfort for those with accessibility needs.
The property is well-equipped with a popular games room and outdoor activities. However, there are reports of maintenance issues such as problems with hot water, the hob, and a charging point, which slightly lower the score.
The hosts are commended for their thoughtful gestures, including a homemade cake and provisions for pets. While such gifts contribute to the positive experience, it is politely noted that these are not guaranteed for every stay.

First Impressions.Very warm welcome by the owners, even for the dog with dog bowls and bed provided.Situation.Good views across countryside from high bungalow up a steepish drive. However, still close to good amenities.We loved the Woodend Carvery a short walk away (also considered good by the vegetarian members of our family).Rooms.Comfortable beds with room for the ten of us (4 being children).Well equipped kitchen.Great games room.Comfortable lounge and settees.Room for all 10 of us around the dining table.Large entrance porch, good for keeping bikes and wet clothes and boots etc.Slight Issues.The boiler's smell (was it an oil burner?) was noticeable in the kitchen.Some of the dining room chairs felt a bit lower than others - a bit too low for children perhaps.
