We booked the Old Count house based on the fact that it had a AA 4 star rating and were extremely disappointed in the standard of the room. Not only was the decor very dated but the bed was small and uncomfortable. Slight damp smell and the sink was in the bedroom and not in the bathroom. Having a sauna... more
