Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests consistently mention the cottage's spotless condition, indicating high standards of cleanliness. The property is described as 'cleaned to a high standard' and 'spotlessly clean' in multiple reviews.
The location is appreciated for its great views and proximity to town, though the steep access and parking difficulties are mentioned. It's ideal for those fit and able to manage the inclines, but may not suit everyone.
The cottage is frequently described as comfortable, cosy, and well-equipped, with a particularly comfortable bed noted. However, one review mentioned an uncomfortable mattress, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities like the well-equipped kitchen, WiFi, and internet TV are praised. Some maintenance issues are raised, such as the decking and shower, but these do not detract significantly from the overall positive feedback.
Many reviews highlight the cottage's thoughtful details, such as provided games, books, and information folders. While gifts like milk are mentioned, it's important to note that such offerings are subject to change and not guaranteed.
