Disliked: Check-in
The amenities were wonderful, although there was no potato peeler and the kitchen needs a better bigger bin. Also the water temperature was dangerously too hot. But we did love the cottage.

Really lovely property furnished and decorated to a high quality

Great property which had been maintained to a high standard. Very clean and modern. Definitely need a car to get around and take full advantage, but this is to be expected. The property was one of a handful of other properties, which surrounded a courtyard, so my only suggestion for change would be to have blinds fitted in the windows facing the court yard, otherwise you do end up getting a clear view of what's happening in the other properties, due to the large windows! You have the option to shut the big heavy curtains but then you miss out on the light from outside and this might not be the best option if it was hot.
