We love the house, the layout works brilliantly for two families and the garden is a delight.

Enjoyed a week of mixed weather. Three generations, ideal location.

No one contacted me to make any arrangement for the repair. The fault was then mended while I was out. Someone had entered the cottage to do this, without my permission and without contacting me. This is unacceptable. and was an intrusion of the space I had rented . I feel very uncomfortable about it.
