“The listing is not really accurate: the photos were taken a long while ago before the garden was so mature/overgrown; the bathroom no longer has a heater; sofas are shabbier.”
The kitchen could be so much better equipped: it needs sharp knives (and get rid of the glass boards, I appreciate that these protect the work surfaces but they blunt knives); we need pans with flat, unwarped bottoms - the frying pans especially were almost impossible to use; a vegetable brush, salad bowl and fruit bowl would all be simple, welcome additions. The kitchen area really needs an extractor fan. A light bulb was out in the kitchen, the salt too damp to use and the pepper empty - these last issues are just sloppy house-keeping, which is a shame as the overall quality of cleaning was excellent.
The bathroom so needs heating - either the underfloor heating just needs to be set to be permanently on or it needs the promised wall heater.
The bed is so soft! I guess some people will like this but for us this was a serious problem.
Not all guests would work out how to switch the router on: we'd suggest leaving this switched on.
This looks like a long list of issues - it is, but overall the cottage was comfy and cosy and 'just' well enough equipped. We appreciated the gesture from the owner to repay our additional log purchases in light of the damp problem the property had suffered in the recent severe rains.
