Family gathering for nearby wedding
On first arriving the cottage looked lovely and was just like the photos. Was spacious. And perfectly sized for our family, with plenty of room to spread out. 6 adults and 1 child. The welcome pack was a nice touch, with fresh coffee, tea bags, jam & biscuits. There were plenty of fresh towels and the bedding was immaculate. There is no mobile service but once you log into the WiFi it’s ok, but intermittent. Expect to drive everywhere as taxis are very reluctant to go to the estate at night.
There were a few small issues, but these didn’t detract from our enjoyment of the break, but maybe the cleaning team could pay more attention to these areas.
The dishwasher was full of the previous occupants pots and the cycle had finished but some of pots were still dirty as the drain in the machine itself was filthy. This must have been like this a while as most of the crockery In the cupboards had dirt on them.
My son found dirty tissues (with blood on)!- and used plasters on the floor next to his bed and there was no soap in that en-suite. (Straight off kitchen)
The grill in the top oven had shelf brackets missing on one side, making this unusable. The toaster didn’t work properly. There were a lot of cobwebs, and the rooms did feel damp and smelt musty. The plug sockets and skirting were covered in dirt and dust.
The property itself is lovely but could do with a thorough deep clean.
