Generally good has improved with the new TV which has made a difference. The cutlery drawer needs checked as there are only 4 forks for a house that can house 6 people!Also we requested that the conservatory bed was made up and that instruction was ignored and wasn't done not the houses fault more cottages.com at fault here. I know this is an ongoing issue as this had happened to my sister before but she was early enough to catch the person cleaning the house. We should be allowed in the house before 5pm as this makes it really late to raise this as an issue we made do with the twin beds.
