Disliked: Cleanliness
Great location, tired house
Park Cottage is set in a lovely location in Cally Woods (so many great walks and cycle opportunities). Also with use of the Cally Palace Hotel facilities including the swimming pool. However the house was unclean, especially the kitchen with unusable pans and not enough cutlery to sit 9 people in one setting. There was black mould on the downstairs bathroom ceiling. Such a shame as the cottage is a great space for families and could be lovely, but when I have fed back about these issues I have not received any response.

Beautiful relaxing break
Our group was 7 adults & 2 kids and we had more than enough room. The property was very clean & had everything we needed. Lovely walks throughout Cally Palace grounds & enjoyed the swimming pool & sauna. Only wish we could have stayed longer.
