    However the property seemed to be designed for good display photos leaving no room for our things. Every shelf there was had picture perfect stuff on it. Although the ‘kitchen’ was tiny it was well equipped and the only cleaning utensils I could find was a dust pan and brush but that was enough to sweep the kitchen floor with. The main issue was the heating and hot water. Although Maggie tried to stress we only have to ask to have the heating/hot water on outside her 3 hour morning and 3 hour evening regime I personally found the idea of doing that very uncomfortable. Therefore we were cold early morning and cold after 9pm, as well as having to wash in tepid water if out of the allotted timings. Overall the flat was show room quality, definitely quirky but the surroundings fairly grim and perhaps the very steep hills to walk into town should be stressed in the on line blurb.
