  Disappointed with cleanliness cottage had lovely potential

  Location was good. The size of the cottage was good with two young children. It had everything we needed including some board games to play. Cottage had a nice cozy feel to it

  Unfortunately on arrival the place was very dirty. After a 7 hour drive we had to spend 4 hours cleaning as we could not u pack. There was dirty food left in the oven and think layer of grease in the grill tray. Sticking finger prints all over the kitchen. The microwave and fridge dirty with food. All cutlery, cups and plates had to be washed before we could use them as all dirty. Dirty marks all over the mirror. All surfaces very dusty and dirty with cup marks, hairs and food. Toilet had hair and dust all over it. Sink was full of toothpaste including the toothbrush holder. Shower gel was left all over the tiles. Cobwebs and spiders every where Only thing that was clean was the beds and floor. They did get someone to come and clean the oven on monday after we arrived on the saturday. Disappointed to learn the office and point of contact closes at 12pm on a saturday but check in isn't until 4pm so any issues you can not contact anyone

  Ni ce but with access issues.

  Property very comfortable.

  The fridge was faulty. Loading and unloading the car was awkward on a very narrow road. Walking to and from the car park on a very narrow road.

  Great base to explore area. Nicely finished.

  Wood burner has no fireside set or glove. Walk up the road is challenging at times. Dark/busy road. Default heating program was 14.5 degrees which is a bit low.

  Average property with smaller rooms that fails to live up to ‘idyllic’ label used to market it.

  Generally well decorated and well equipped kitchen. Nearby beaches good.

  Nowhere to unload near property. Busy main road with no pavement that can be dangerous at times especially with children and noisy if windows left open when warm. Dirty oven, dirty dishwasher and dirty pans etc. Bathroom and other fittings not well-maintained. Third bedroom tiny.
