Beautiful location, house was gorgeous, very peaceful, good selection of kitchen items. Beds comfy, heating easy to use. Showers hot.
WiFi signal could be better, but given the location may not be possible.

Gorgeous cottage in a wonderful, tranquil location. Lovely to have the top balcony to sit out on the top balcony even when it's raining because you are sheltered. We thoroughly enjoyed our week there. As always, it was absolutely spotlessly clean and comfortable.
I'm really nitpicking here, but a garlic crusher would be a great addition to the cooking utensils - and maybe a few more teaspoons. It is really well equipped, though.

the weather was beautiful, so we spent every evening on the patio. it was lovely! the kitchen was well stocked. We were at the midway of our trip, so the washer/dryer was invaluable. Communications with your team was excellent - both before our stay and during.
It would have been helpful to have written instructions for all the appliances - particularly the washer/dryer and the water heater. We ran out the hot water tank one day and didn't realize it is on a timer. Gillian came over that evening and explained it to us. If we had instructions, we might have saved her a visit.

third visit and it is a wonderful house and location
starting to notice a bit of wear and tear. Could probably do with some work. Loose skirting board at front door.No dustpan when sweeping up.

Everything
Grass cutting when visitors are there is distrurbing, could it wait till change over day? People walking their dogs right past the cottage when people are clearly in residence is annoying. One woman walked past with her two dogs everyday!

Idyllic location and fabulous property, extremely well appointed. We had a superb time and will definitely be rebooking and recommending to others.
The electric hob should be updated to an induction hob which is both more efficient and safer. The old fashioned hob currently installed is both difficult to control and potentially dangerous (particularly for children) given that the plates remain extremely hot for a prolonged period after the cooker has been turned off. I burnt my hand badly as a result (...my own fault).

An excellent location & surpassed expectations. Proved to be an ideal retreat to get away from it all, but within easy access to local amenities. Accommodation provided both a very comfortable and very well equipped stay in a secluded spot. Would certainly consider returning.
May be worth pointing out on the property details that the stairs me be a problem for elderly or infirm.
