Primrose Reviews

Andrew
Lovely accommodation and quiet location. Just what we were looking for.
Stay was lovely we really enjoyed it. However, there were no utensils for the BBQ provided, and no ability to clean the bbq. Other than 1 small dish sponge. So this must all be brought by yourself. The only other point we would make would be the hot tub. Even with the recommendation of showering before getting in, the water really should be offered to be changed every day, or at most every other day. We stayed for 3 nights and couldn't use it the final day due to the old stale water. So this would at least allow us to have gotten the most out of it. Everything else was lovely and well described
Andrea
Just amazing we loved our stay at Primrose and will be back. Such friendly owners and readily visible
