Tranquil spot

Lovely old fashioned bungalow with fantastic mature gardens that provided much needed shade during our stay which coincided with the recent heatwave. Goodness knows how we would have coped without being able to sit out in the shade! Surprisingly peaceful & private despite being on the edge of a large village.

Very nice overall

Overall very nice bungalow in a lovely quiet and peaceful area, perfect for dog walkers or those who just want to relax. The garden is beautiful and well maintained, as well as being very private, the bungalow is comfortable and homely. The shower could do with being updated, very weak pressure and not very warm, found it slightly odd that the french doors leading to the garden were chained close. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Bungalow with potential

This bungalow is in a lovely area but would benefit from a complete renovation. The garden and orchard could be beautiful but it is very overgrown and neglected. For anyone who wants to get back to nature it is just ideal.
Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Jul 2022
Rewilding is deliberate in the old orchard, separated from main garden by a high fence. There is a mown grassy path around its edge to facilitate access by nature lovers. The main garden is secluded and sheltered, with garden furniture provided. The period feel of the bungalow's furnishings and decor should be obvious from the photos provided.

The best part of the stay was leaving!

On entering the property you are welcomed with a musty damp smell and when you start to look around you realise why MOULD! Despite previous reviews about the mould on this property (which we did not see before booking) clearly nothing has been done about it. We cut our stay short staying only one night which was not a pleasant experience. The property is old and outdated which is fine if you want to step back in to 1950 (which is when I think the photos on the profile for this property were taken) but being that unclean is not acceptable. The shower does not really work and the mattress in main bedroom is Undescribable. I can not put photos on this site but have emailed them to vrbo who I have to say have been great and refunded us, we emailed the photos to the owners who offered us a gesture of good of £200 (so I guess they know the issues with the letting) that they said they posted 6 days ago but we have not received it yet.
Stayed 3 nights in May 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Jun 2024
These guests clearly made a big mistake in booking our bungalow. It is clear from the web site that it is not modern and has period features which many guests like. Many of the criticisms made are inaccurate or unjustified. Reference to mould last appeared in feedback on the VRBO web site as long ago as 2020 and has been rectified. We spoke to the guests several hours after their arrival and they surprisingly reported no problems at all. In addition, our medical daughter and son-in-law stayed at the bungalow the weekend before these guests arrived and reported no problems with mould or the mattress. We decided to refund £200 as a goodwill gesture as the guests only stayed one night (out of 3). In an email they implied receipt of the cheque in contrast to what they state in their comments. (Certificate of posting 31.05.2024, 13.22) We feel the phots accurately reflect the property as many other guests have recognised in giving high marks for accuracy of information. Unfortunately we have received several emails from these guests which have been vexatious and threatening. Overall we feel that the complaints made are generally inaccurate. We are pleased that other recent guests have given the property high marks as is reflected in the overall “excellent” score.

Disappointing

Beautiful serene location and garden. The property did not smell pleasant and was too dirty to enjoy. There were no window keys and only two windows could be opened! Would benefit from a refresh/redecoration and a thorough deep clean. It has such potential to make a comfortable and desirable let.

We were unable to speak to these visitors by phone after their arrival, as we usually do. We sent a text to ask them to let us know of any problems, but none were identified by them at the time. Keys are provided for all windows, hanging beside each one on a hook.

Christmas Stay

We found the bungalow spacious, cosy and comfortable and located in a very quiet area. It was the perfect base for visiting family in the area. It was very well equipped. The only criticism in terms of the cleanliness was the cobwebs. The Christmas decorations and the Welcome Pack were a lovely touch too.

Pleased that the seasonal theme welcoming our visitors was appreciated. Apologies for the cobwebs. We have asked our cleaner to pay particular attention to them in future.

About the host

Hosted by Dr and Mrs J V Sharp

Host profile image
We live near Oxford, but have welcomed visitors to our holiday property in Sutterton for many years.

Why they chose this property

I was brought up in the village, and many of our visitors tell us how much they also enjoy the wide open skies and landscapes of the flat Lincolnshire fenland farms. It's an ideal area for walking, cycling, bird watching, stately home visits or for garden enthusiasts.

It's in a peaceful and relaxing location, but a good base for expeditions exploring the local area.

What makes this property unique

The large and secluded garden surrounding the property is always appreciated by our visitors.

I enjoy cooking, and the bungalow is well equipped with crockery and kitchen equipment, but there's also a wide choice of places to eat out either in the village or in the surrounding area if you don't feel like cooking!
