Ivy bush cottage needs more privacy, no frosted glass in bathroom and onschite and no curtain or blind on front door, no happy medium with heating we was instructed not to adjust the thermostat, and entertainment wise one of the reasons I booked the cottage they advertised Sky, Net Flix aswell has normally Terrestrial TV but after settling in I was disappointed to find no Sky no box or not being allowed to log in to Net Flix or get on to any normal TV, the cottage didn't have a aerial, there was some DVDs but guess what no DVD player so all I could do was a jigsaw puzzle or read a book or go out in the rain.

This was a gem of a find. A beautiful cottage perfectly placed for what we needed, off roading on the strata Florida! The cottage was well kitted out and lovely and warm when it was freezing outside. The cottage has been renovated so well its stunning and clean and tidy. Its bigger than it looks on the photos, plenty of space for 4 adults. The garden is a great size too. Would highly recommended.
