“The charming and peaceful location is lovely but could not quite compensate for the fact that this pleasant house has seen too many visitors and now needs to upgrade some tired and rather grubby (it has to be said) floor coverings and soft furniture.”
Obviously, your publicity photos were taken a long time ago ! The patio furniture was comfortable but crammed onto a poor space which could do with a pressure wash and some attention to encroaching vegetation. The front large patio, ideal for al fresco dining, was devoid of any furniture at all which was a pity and equally needs a good scrub. Hot water was ‘on demand’ but our demands were often ignored, particularly at the bathroom wash basin and the shower controls were aging and rather ‘cranky’ . You’ll love the location but perhaps conclude, as we did, that it’s time some money was spent to upgrade the facilities as this cottage does not currently justify the premium price bracket that it’s in . Our hosts were friendly and approachable and in spite of the criticisms we enjoyed our stay not least because of the glorious September weather.
