Due to the age and construction of historic homes, it is not uncommon following periods of heavy rain or major differences in weather conditions for moisture present in the walls to form patches of condensation internally as the colder air meets the warmer air inside. As this occasionally occurs within the living room in one corner, which is a cold spot, the owners have provided a dehumidifier for your use should this occur during your stay. Usually this only occurs during the colder winter months but keeping the cottage ventilated during your stay, such as by opening the window when cooking or showering helps reduce the moisture already in the cottage and reduces the likelihood of this occurring as it allows excess moisture to escape and the old house to breathe.
Many thanks for your cooperation in this respect.

Cottage was very well equipped and comfortable it had everything you need for a short stay. It's in a nice pleasant location with friendly neighbours. On the road parking isn't ideal but ok. The only issue is the garden it could do with dome better steps at the bottom to make access a little easier especially if you're not to steady on your feet. But overall a very nice base to rest and relax after visiting the surrounding areas. Also the bath/ shower could do with a grab handle to assist getting in and out the shower.
