A great location for a compact cottage
This is a small, maritime themed cottage, which could easily achieve a personal higher star rating. It is generally well equipped and the mezzanine bedroom (that we used) had very comfortable beds. The small downstairs bedroom would be useful if you didn’t fancy the quirky stairs to the mezzanine floor, but we much preferred the open plan aspect of being upstairs. The provision of towels etc. was a plus as too was the private paved garden, also it was only a 2 minute stroll to one of the best beaches, an ideal location. The shower is very compact and the base a little tired, but a great hot water supply.
There were a few things that stopped us from rating this higher. The oven in the kitchen does not work, a microwave is there, but micro-waved Croissants don’t taste as good! The plugs in the two sinks are faulty and look like they have been for a while, so the water just runs through. Recently somebody has stayed there with a dog and the upstairs especially smells very ‘doggy’ by the bed and we found quite a few dog hairs on the floor and under things. The Hoover too smelt the same. The Internet is under ‘General’ and we presumed there was Internet in the house. This isn’t the case, although it seems you can visit the Marie to use the account, but there is little point in doing that since the harbour has a good free wifi service. The pedal bin lid in the kitchen rusted through and snapped off whilst we were there, and although we were told it would be replaced (presumably after we left) the condition of it meant that it was apparent it should have been replaced much earlier. The paintwork too is badly damaged in quite a few places. Everything needs to be refreshed, repainted and replaced if old and worn, not to wait for it to finally break, although we have no idea of how long it is since the oven worked. This isn’t a cheap rental cottage and we feel that it should include a proper clean at the end of each rental instead of the occupants cleaning it themselves or paying an extra fee to have it done. Of course it should be regularly kept clean as you would do your own home, but it was apparent that the final ‘departure clean’ is often rushed because the occupants are wanting to start their journey home.
Not-withstanding the paragraph above we really enjoyed our stay at Number 4. It is beautifully quiet, comfortable, near the beach and the forest. A 15 minute walk to the harbour and its restaurants – it could be the perfect rental!!
