Only downside was no fuel in house for the log burner. Checking in at 16.30 then realising we had to go back on ourselves to get fuel when it was getting dark was a little hassle. Also needed batteries for the tv remote as they were flat. Only very minor things though as everything else was great and we would definitely return.

I noticed a gap in the plinth under the cooker units were I could see mice droppings. Maybe consider closing these gaps up.

We had one problem when we arrived in the cottage as the fridge broke on the first evening and coolant leaked all over the food & drink inside, much of which we had to dispose of in case it was contaminated. The kitchen floor was also covered in water as the fridge started to defrost. The coolant smelled terrible and lingered for several days, especially on the outside of packaging of any unopened food & drinks which were in the fridge at the time. We did clean the fridge and the kitchen floor, but the smell remained for a long time. This was reported the next morning to Graythwaite via their website and they responded very quickly, taking away the damaged fridge and installing a replacement.
