パイパーロッジ - 古代の建物 - 田舎の光で変換された変換

Hi Lauren - thank you for taking the time to review, we are obviously devastated to hear that the house was not as clean as you would have liked, we have never had a review for poor cleanliness before so would really love to get more feedback on that so that we can address it in the future? Many thanks

Thank you so much for such a happy review! We love it here but it gladdens our hearts when someone comes and feels the same way. So pleased you had a good weekend and many thanks again

The 4.5 acre wildflower meadow is not private to Piper House, it spreads the length of the river across from the house. We in fact don't use it much - it is not part of our garden and we have other outside spaces which we as a family use, but as the meadow is now quite established and has some quite rare plants, Matthew and I now keep a record of plants and insect/bird life - the butterfly survey is recorded as part of a national survey, and so spend an hour or so several times a week - usually early evening, in the meadow. I don't think we did this so much when Amina and her friends were staying, as the meadow was pretty well 'over' by then, and in fact mown shortly after she left, but from late May to mid to end of July, this is definitely something we undertake to do. If guests are also in the meadow, reading, meditating or just wandering, we give them privacy and focus on other areas. The tennis court - which is at the edge of the meadow - is occasionally used by my children (Matthew and I do not play), although as none of them live at home anymore, this is not a frequent problem.. and our children will always vacate the court if guests want to use it. My son was home when Amina stayed, and so asked whether they would mind if he used the court, and was told that they didn't intend to use it, so it would not be an issue. I hope other reviews from other guests will be reassuring on this point as I think this is the only time I can remember that we had a child home wanting to play when there were guests in Piper, and certainly it has never been commented on before. Aunby is a tiny hamlet with 5 houses in total - 4 are at the 'end' of the village - spread out over an area of about 15 acres where the public road ends. These are our own house, 2 neighbours and Piper House. We do try make it clear in the notes that although we are in a very rural location, we do have neighbours and for this reason, groups wanting to 'party' present a problem, noise wise, for other residents. Piper House is appropriate for guests wanting to spend time enjoying the countryside, our wildflowers, tennis, the river, lake, yoga, walking etc. I try to make this as clear as I can both in the description of the property and also during the booking process, where I ALWAYS reiterate this point, and I am grateful to Amina for raising this point again, as this is a further opportunity for me to emphasis this.
