Thanks for sharing your experience staying at Shelducks, Howell's Mere 119. We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the property, as well as the lovely outdoor environment! Thanks also for your feedback regarding the dishwasher, we will endeavour to sort this issue out for next time. We sincerely hope to welcome you back again at some point in the future! Kind regards, Habitat Escapes.

Dinner cooked in our property was excellent. Pete and his daughter produced a delicious meal and service was also excellent. Not enough electric car charging points.

Thank you so much for your kind words about your stay at Robins Retreat, Minety Lake 55. We're so happy to hear that all the family found something for them and enjoyed their time at Lower Mill! It's great to hear that you were able to make the most of the lake access at the property too! We're delighted that you've returned to Lower Mill for five years now, and would be so pleased to welcome you back again in the future! Kind regards, Habitat Escapes.
