The Cottage

5 Customer Reviews

• "On arrival the cottage was clean and tidy."

  However, it was only a surface clean, there were spider webs and spiders that had to be got rid of. The work surfaces and table were not clean. The lighting switches were all mixed up and wrong way round, on was off and off was on. There was no landing light. There was no main light or pull cord in the bathroom of the double bedded room, only a shavers light, which made the lighting dim. The cutlery had to be washed before use and some of the plates too. The curtain pole at the landing window came down when curtains were closed. The toaster tripped the fuse on our first night and we had to make contact with yourselves and the named person on the folder in the cottage, which was difficult as no mobile signal and the phone box we were told to use was overgrown and not working. Once we found out where the fuse box was, we could ask the guests to flick it back for us. However, physical help was not available, so had there been no guests or they were out we would have been stuck with no electricity for a night. We had a fridge full of food and children, so this would not have been ideal. Information in the booklet was not correct about the phone box, there was no information about the rubbish, recycling, washing machine or what to do with the laundry at the end of our stay. We found out about the rubbish and recycling ourselves, though these bins were overflowing! The laundry, we stripped the beds and put it in a pile in each room as didn't know what else to do. However, we had a nice stay once settled and will have a cottage again, but this was not a nice experience for our first time.

• "The electrical system is apalling, downstairs lighting fused twice during our stay and as the antiquated fuse board was located in a different property we were forced to walk down the road to find a phone signal and call the letting agent as the owners details were not supplied."

  Also when checking the smoke alarm i found the battery installed back to front!!!

• "The Cottage was clean and comfortable, and the wood-burning stove made is very cosy."

  It was so peaceful, and to be greeted by the sound of birds singing in the morning just topped it off! The cottage is in an ideal location for exploring the area - there are some nice walks locally and it is great base for exploring by car. We would definitely recommend this property.
