Nice comfortable cottage spotlessly clean warm and plenty of hot water on demand, bed very comfortable and kitchen equipment satisfactory. Unfortunately they let themselves down with things that could be so easily sorted if they took a moment. Bulbs out in the kitchen ceiling Lights not working under worktop’s Bathroom bulbs out on ceiling Mirror light in bathroom not working Windows stuck shut, we managed to open one of them. So easy to sort out which would change this from a good property to great. With things sorted I would highly recommend.
