Very comfortable, clean. The cream tea upon arrival was a very nice touch.

Firstly the toilet and shower room is very small, the shower itself was very cramped and the door wouldn't shut properly. The main bulb in 2nd bedroom wasn't working, down to electrical fault as new bulb they left us didn't work. The patio area was just a fenced off bit yard which was bit dirty and full of cobwebs, not very nice to sit out. Outside the cottage can be dangerous for pets and young children, it was often quite a busy road and cars passed at excessive speed at times. There are roadblocks at certain times of day and Mum didn't feel safe to ride her mobility scooter down lanes for a wander. We chose this property due to 'all ground floor access' as Mum can't walk properly, but the front steps to cottage was very high for her to try get up without us helping. On good note the cottage was situated close to lovely beaches, was mostly clean, we had a nice welcome tray on arrival and the beds were very comfy. Also added benefit of Netflix and Wi-Fi. Please don't be offended but we do have a few suggestions if we may. I think the cottage would benefit from having a washing machine instead of dishwasher, as it would be more useful. Also a fridge with freezer box for ice and ice creams, especially as was very hot the 2 weeks we came. Also a 4 piece toaster instead of 2.. Just for convenience. Also it may be helpful to provide a little fairy washing liquid, scrubber, cloths, spray cleaner and tea towels as most Cottages do

It was a lovely bright cottage with some fantastic views across the fields. The cottage had a good selection of crockery and cooking pots and utensils although we did not cook as we enjoyed our Cornish pasties most days!! The beds were very comfortable and plenty of pillows which we did use as my husband needs to be propped upright at night (health condition). A great powerful shower with good temperature controls that were easy to use. Easy to put on the heating which we needed to do a couple of evenings due to it being a bit cooler but as our week went on the weather got better and warmer. Both our dogs felt at home instantly and although they wouldnât use the courtyard for toilet business, we were able to just walk them down the lanes where there were grass verges that they were more than happy to use. It was an ideal location for the days out we wanted as we did not need to travel too far to visit places we wanted to visit. It was a great holiday, being in a comfortable cottage made it better and with great warm and sunny days, we chose a great week to be away.
