    The leather lounge in the TV room was old and has lost its firmness and needs to be replaced. Likewise the leather chairs in the dining room were saggy. The outdoor seating area could also do with a makeover.

    The location was on a small farm 10 minutes drive from Winchester, which is what we wanted. It is a quiet and pretty location,. It requires a car (which we had) to get into town and see the surrounding countryside. There is a nice pub within walking distance. The bedrooms, living room and kitchen/dining room are very spacious with nice views from the windows. The apartment was clean and the kitchen well equipped with tea/ coffee biscuits provided. And there is a washer/dryer which is great for travellers. Parking not a problem. The apartment is a duplex with the hosts living next door. They were friendly and helpful.

    The location was amazing. It was so peaceful after a day out to sit on the patio at the back and watch the sun go down.

    We moved a bedside table and lamp into the twin room as there wasn't one, but that's a very small detail in what was a lovely place.

    Fabulous rural location but only a few miles from Winchester. Well equipped kitchen. Very warm and cosy. The Plough pub was very nearby and was excellent.

    Far too cold. Heating didn't come on at all the first day. And my elderly mother was really cold and struggled to warm up. However it is particularly cold atm.

    We loved the house and everything in it was perfect. Just needs heating sorted.

    dinning room chairs the seat padding to worn. no bedside table in twin bedroom. No instructions on how to use the dishwasher. could have a few more glasses In the kitchen the shower room needed a bit of a clean and some of the decor was a little bit tired. the accommodation could do with a bit more furniture

    lovely quiet location and lovely property with good size rooms. linen and towels were lovely soft and clean. bedrooms very spacious. good powerful shower. good size dinning table. nice extra to have a few board games to play. lovely quiet location with the plough pub just around the corner.

    Couldn't figure out how the heating system works. Sometimes it did and sometimes it didn't - but we weren't at a very cold days

    So kind people. They helped us with every question we had within a few minutes. The property is very pretty and quiet, with lots of green and horses around. Great place just to walk around and enjoy nature, minutes from Winchester.

    The location is stunning. If you want a quiet rural location this is the spot. The Annex itself is very well equipped with good facilities and very clean and comfortable. Ideal location to get away from it all and relax. It is very close to a wonderful top quality pub and grocery stores a few miles away.

    Found a pair of womens underwear in plain sight in one of the small cupboards. I had emailed and asked if a carton of Oat milk could be provided for breakfast for the morning as late getting to the property but no acknowledgement via email or messages to say if it could or couldn't be done. Rubbish was piled next to the bin at the side of the property and the vacuum was full and didn’t know how to empty it.

    Exceptional rooms and space. The gardens were perfect for the children to run around and play in and the views were amazing from every window. I liked that it had a washing machine and even washing tabs. The furniture was comfortable and easy to use equipment in the kitchen and the tvs.

    The owners have a large boxer dog, it was not mentioned on the booking details and we have a 5 and half year old with us. The owners were very considerate and kept it out of the way after the only meeting but maybe mention this to them on booking if you have a child that does not like dogs.

    The location was lovely, so quiet. The property was spacious and comfy and the hosts very considerate providing a coffee machine with pods and all washing up stuff and a bottle of wine on the Saturday night! We saw bunny rabbits, horses, squirrels and bats! Pub very close by as well.
