Bankside House Reviews

Elizabeth
Everything we expected, and needed for a family holiday, clean, comfortable, very dog friendly which is important to us. The hot tub was well maintained and enjoyed, especially on a cold sleety day in February!!! Thankyou to to the owners who allowed us to have a lovely holiday.
Family Christmas break in this lovely house. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. We had a great stay, my grandsons loved the hot tub, so did Nana !! The owners were on hand to help even on Christmas Eve and the Christmas tree and decorations were an unexpected extra touch. Thank you
A lovely house and we enjoyed our mid week family break. Excellent downstairs facilities for my parents with limited mobility and my nieces enjoyed using the hot tub. Thank you Penny
Cheryl
This is such a lovely house and very peaceful, I was worried when I realised it was next to a railway bridge but I neednt have because the railway line is no longer in use The house has everything you need and the owner was on hand for any advice or help, the hot tub was lovely and was maintainedchecked daily, someone had previously mentioned that lorries could see you in the tub but tbh we only used it in the evenings and was secluded enough for us you have a bathing costume on so no different than being on holiday anywhere else The beds were very comfortable and the black out curtains were very good at keeping the light out etc, The welcome basket and goodies in the fridge was a lovely thought and made the long drive from Scotland worth it! I would highly recommend this property to anyone, it has a ramp access for wheelchairs and a wet room downstairs too All in all a lovely time was had by all!
Great beautiful house with a really lovely hot tub. Lovely welcome pack of food and a bottle of wine and milk in the fridge. I had a wonderful 60th catching up with my cousin's. We walked to the Nags head which was a lovely village pub and took about 25 minutes but was a lovely walk. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you
We had a lovely stay. The beds are super comfy and the whole house was very clean and tidy. The hot tub was a real treat after a busy day sightseeing around the area.
The house was perfect for our wedding weekend. Spacious rooms and lovely, comfy beds. We really appreciated the welcome basket and Penny was very helpful and kindly offered an early check in if we needed it. Would definitely recommend for a groupfamily get together.

Great stay! Will definitely go back! The house is stunning! The garden is spacious and the hot tub is just the cheery on top of the cake! We made lots of memories
Shabana
We had a lovely girls weekend here. Owners were lovely and kind they gave us coal and firelighters for the BBQ when I told them we didnt have any. The house is well equipped and the rooms are beautifully furnished. The only downside is the garden area is actually at the front of the house, and so it wasnt completely private especially in the daytime as there were trucks on the road and people passing by that could look in to the garden area. The hot tub was decorated with fairy lights which looked stunning at night, bbq was was also easy to use. Overall, lovely stay at Bankside house.
We couldn't have asked for a more perfect house for our family getaway! The house itself is beautifully decorated with great size bedrooms. The wheelchair access through the downstairs bedroom and wet room are perfect for anybody needing accessible features during a stay. The kitchen was fully equipped and we didn't find anything that was missing that stopped us being able to cook meals, as well as the bbq being an added bonus for hot days. We absolutely loved the hot tub set up on an evening to relax with a few drinks. We've stayed in a few properties in the UK over the years and never found owners to be as nice and accommodating as Penny and Heath. Straight on hand to help within minutes when we needed a bit of help. But overall perfect stay and we can't wait to come back sometime! Thanks for everything
Nishilla

Valentin
The property was really nice and it accommodate us very well. Very large rooms, spacious living room and a well equipped kitchen made the interior fantastic. Outside nice cosy garden, brand new barbecue and outstanding hot tub made our little holiday something to be remembered. Thanks
