Very good

Great location. This house could be very good and has a lot of positives, however we felt it needed a good clean. The fridge in particular was dirty. The kitchen hob was very difficult to work out. There were items found underneath beds and furniture which hadn’t been removed. Some of the beds had old mattresses with bobbly mattress toppers. The garden furniture needed cleaning and the gate at the back wouldn’t close or lock which I feel presented a security risk. Only one of the bathrooms had any handwash. We were also disappointed by the contents of the Information book which hadn’t been updated for some time. Putting all of this to one side we enjoyed our weekend but wouldn’t book this cottage again.
