Bathroom was clean, but the kitchen, while on the whole clean, the fridge had not been cleaned out, I had to do it. There was no information pack to advise you how things worked. Therefore took a bit of time to work out the induction hob, it turned out it had been locked, by a previous occupant. Had no hot water for a while but this was resolved. There were other niggly issues that should have been checked before we came. No details of vets, doctors or dentists left and no suggestions of where to visit. Can't say we didn't enjoy our stay, but it could have been better.

On arrival the cottage looked just like the pictures, but on closer inspection there were some issues with maintenance and cleanliness. Examples maintenance: bottleholder in the fridgedoor was missing, handle to flush the loo was cellotaped on, one blind woulnât come down, another wouldnât stay up. Examples cleaning: cobwebs (and spiders) in every corner, crumbs in kitchen cabinets and an oven which could do with a good clean. Having said this, the bathroom and bedroom were clean and tidy and the towels new and really fluffy. After a while we were able to look past the issues as mentioned and had very enjoyable time. Highfield cottage is built to a high standard and is beatifully decorated, it just needs some tlc.
