Response from VrboOwner on 17 Sept 2025
Hi Kevin Thank you for your feedback. We are unsure what you mean by 'updating'? Eskmoor cottage is a Grade 2 listed building with many original features, most visitors think this is a plus point of the property and say it is excellent value for money, we haven't had any complaints about this before and have been renting the property out for over 14 years now with quite a number of repeat bookings. Kind regards Peter & Laura

The garden was not up what was on the pictures. It was difficult to get to because of the holly bushes
