The kitchen was well equipped but certain things that most cottages have were missing such as washing up liquid, tea towels ,only 1 toilet roll in each loo, no bath mats ,mattress protector wasn't on , un ironed sheets and no waste bins outside we took our rubbish and recycling away each day. The Sofas were really uncomfortable and a lack of tv instructions made it difficult fathom out. The property was pretty and quiet a few little steps would make it brilliant and at little cost.

Unfortunately it now needs updating and a good deep clean. From mouldy shower curtains to left over burnt food in the cooker, it was a let down. We had to hoover the tatty pool table and the outside furniture covers were covered in muddy dog prints. We still had a good family break and cleaned areas that needed it. Thankfully we booked last minute and didnât pay full price.
