“I think that people who have asthma ...”

I think that people who have asthma should be warned that the bedding in made with feathers. More than that in the small bedroom there is quite a lot of mould at the head of the bed and the inhabitant is therefore breathing in spores. It was a nice little cottage for two although the shower was very small and the kitchen could have done with a few more kitchen instruments. I liked the cottage but not the damp in several places.

“The cottage was very charming but ...”

The cottage was very charming but we hit on a problem as soon as we arrived on the Saturday. The smell of damp in the kitchen was very strong and so I had a good look around to find there was a bowl under the sink overflowing with stagnant water complete with spores. I tried to remove the bowl but soon realised the S bend was obstructing it. Also I was mindful of causing a greater problem. I contacted you but did not hear further. I also tried to contact the owner but did not get a response. On the Monday I contacted you again and soon heard from the owner who then came over to deal with the problem. She arranged for a plumber to call the next day to fully resolve the matter. However the main issue here is that I should not have been faced with this problem. The management and cleaning is clearly lacking and it was quite apparent the bowl of water had been there for some time. I appreciate the weekly rent was quite reasonable but there is a minimum standard and quite honestly I felt that some furnishing was tired and dated ie bed and sofa.

“A lovely peaceful cottage in a great location.”

The cottage is hidden away down a slightly bumpy but gorgeous little back lane away from traffic but within a short walk of the village. It had most of the things we look for including wifi, a dishwasher and freeview TV as well as a woodburner. Shower was good although a bath would be perfect. The village has an excellent gastropub, a teashop with homemade cakes and local crafts and a small grocery shop. We can't wait to come back.
