“Fantastic location, sadly needs some improvements”
Fantastic location for a holiday cottage but lacking personal touches ie no soap in downstairs toilet lacking washing up liquid/sponge and not providing much toilet roll especially for a large family.Thankfully having a co op shop very close was perfect so we could buy everything as we arrived.Sadly i had to wash the towels as they smelt of cigarette smoke, thankfully it had a washer /dryer.Maybe a wash basket may help future residents seen as you have a washer ,unfortunately there is no air dryer.To prevent wet boot foot prints i think doormats may help and a curtain/blind at the glass front/back doors to prevent people looking in as they continually did.We had to ensure laptops etc where kept upstairs out of view.A previous review suggested a new sofa and they said one is on order.The leak in the shower needs sorting as a damp patch on the lounge ceiling is evident.This cottage has such a lot of potential, it just needs a bit of TLC
