We booked a 2 week holiday at this property but unfortunately due to unavoidable family circumstances had to leave after only 3 days. A big Thank You for the kindness of the owners. The accommodation was spotless, with all the comforts of home and the views are outstanding. We are defiantly looking forward to returning to this property in the future.

Owner told us it was controlled by them. She did say she would put it on an hour mornings and 2 in the evening but this did not happen. We were not cold but being a wet week it would have been good to dry our clothes. Towels stayed Damp all week. If they are worried about heating Costs they should follow example of other owners and allow a certain amount of heating expenditure for guests and if they exceed that amount they pay the difference.Towel rails should be heated independent of heating system. No point in having one otherwise. Never stayed anywhere with this arrangement before. No outside light at cottage so not good coming back in the dark. These points tarnished the holiday somewhat. B Rothwell damp as towel rail was attached to heating system. No outside light when we came back in the dark. Would suggest that like other cottages we have stayed in they say we can have up to a certain amount in heating charges but if we use over that then we pay the difference? A heated towel rail should be independent of central heating. These things tarnished the holiday somewhat. B Rothwell
