“Stunning views is the first thing we thought on arrival.”
The cottage was clean, even upto my OCD standards. The place was very homely, comfortable and well decorated. We chose this cottage because it looked well presented. The kitchen appliances and utensils were well stocked up and in perfect working order. The garden was amazing too sit out in, watching the ships come and go and at night star gazing. Plenty of storage space in the bedrooms for your clothes and stuff. There were books to read, DvD's to watch at night, a cabinet full of various games. Overall,I could live in this house more comfortably than my own house. In fact, I didn't want to leave and my husband had to turf me out, I wanted to claim squatters rights. Needless to say I'm depressed to be back home.
THINGS TO CONSIDER FOR POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS.
the big couch in the living room is uncomfortable and sags at the back. Nobody wanted to sit there.
We would of liked to park our car in the garage.
Dogs not allowed upstairs and on furniture, impossible task for a pet that is a lap dog and actually sleeps with me in bed.
The carpet in the living room is due for a good shampoo. The rug in front of the fire kept curling up and revealing what colour the carpet really is supposed to be.
It took us 10 minutes to find the key safe it was that well hidden. Maybe better instruction on the exact location or cut the bush, also I had to fight the spiders guarding the safe before I could retrieve the key.
Wifi password is very tricky to read in the handbook.
The bedroom window should have a clear sign on to warn people it is a fire exit and should not be opened. Children are not likely to take notice as they don't read the handbook, have curious hands and need a warning in front of their faces.
The TV in the living room isn't big enough, it's the only TV in the house and we struggled with the small screen.
We're pleased you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and our amazing views. Following your comments we got a company out to shampoo the lounge carpet (we usually do it ourselves). They said the difference in colour is due to sunlight, not dirt. We will therefore replace it when we re-decorate.
