    “There was a very strong smell of fresh paint for the first few days but that subsided after time.”

    The property was beautiful and decorated to a very high standard. The beds were comfortable and well positioned. I found the den slightly dark and very cold at night. The heating down there didn’t seem to work. Everything else was brilliant and the views were fantastic and so relaxing. Thank you.

    Hi Simone, we are glad you found Astondene a relaxing place to holiday, we agree the views are great! We are always looking to improve the house and in March we renovated the utility area. We are sorry if the paint smell had lingered on. Property Owner
