Varför människor älskar det
- Immaculate cleanliness that consistently shocks guests
- Private garden terrace perfect for morning coffee
- Thoughtful 'welcome hamper' touches like fresh milk and cookies
Snabb Överblick: It's a high-end self-catering apartment masquerading as a B&B, so don't expect a cooked breakfast to appear on your table unless you make it yourself.
Recenserat av @NatashaMuthambi539145: I booked this mirror house for our anniversary because we wanted total seclusion. The private jacuzzi in the woods was a dream, and waking up surrounded by nature while staying cozy inside was unforgettable. Definitely get the pod with the hot tub!

5 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡The 'river view' mentioned in some listings is actually a small stream (River Greet) at the bottom of the garden—charming, but don't expect the Thames.
💡It's technically in Kirklington, but feels more connected to Southwell (the nearby market town) for amenities.
💡The driveway can be a bit tight if you have a massive SUV.
💡You might hear the occasional owl at night—it's properly rural.
💡The 'continental breakfast' is often just a starter pack left in the fridge, not a daily replenished buffet.
