“The property was fantastic, enough room for our family and our pets.”
The gardens were lovely and well kept. The rooms were large and spacious. The only thing I would recommend is for winter sheets on the beds and perhaps another oil heater instead of the fan heater which was noisey.,other than that it was a great place to stay. Close to the city and lots of places for our puppies to be walked.

“We had a lovely stay thank you.”
The gardens were a very nice outlook from the house and being on a back section it was private from the road. We felt warm coming in the winter time with the heat pump and heaters in the bedrooms. A great home away from home. The only thing missing were tongs in the kitchen. Thanks again.

“Our group arrived late on Friday night, only to find that the lockbox code provided did not work.”
We spent a frustrating 30 minutes on hold with the helpline (0800 42 22 42) without any response. After numerous attempts with different combinations, we were forced to make alternative arrangements as we could not access the property.
When contacted following our stay, bachcare failed to provide adequate compensation which not only is disappointing but also reflects a lack of genuine concern for your guests' experiences. We expected better from a company that prides itself on guest satisfaction.
I will not be using this service again.
