    Small range of kitchen items to use, could do with adding a few more. Unclear instructions on using the heating system and recycling.

    Great location with on street parking. Excellent outside space. Clean spacious cottage.

    The leather sofa was uncomfortable, too saggy and low. Couldn’t settle to watch TV in the evenings. Only gripe we have.

    Location and parking were excellent. Cottage very pretty and contained everything we needed.

    Could do with some TLC & a bit of thought . A blind or curtain would have been nice in the top bedroom ( small window overlooking sainsbury) as lights shine in all night . Boiler does 'tick' all night-located at bottom of stairs / top bedroom Surprised, there was only 1 smoke alarm located in the kitchen - none in hallways ect Personally, it would be a good one night stopover, not a long stay

    Location is great . House clean & very basic Outdoor space is good Managed to park outside

    No door to upstairs bedroom. Not enough that tumbler’s or wine glasses for 4 people. People had size and types of glasses. No mirror in first floor bedroom and a better mirror would be nice above the bathroom room sink to shave with etc.

    The kitchen was very small with no space to keep food as we ate in most of the time. Although there is nothing that can be done able this but the early morning Sainsburys delivery at the rear of the property was very lound.

    Instructions were email to us and it was very clear and easy to find and use the keysafe. Loved the location of the property and the closed garden for our dog, The beds were comforable

    Looked better in the photos as it felt a little uncared for i.e could have done with a lick of paint as some walls were marked and signs of past damp . Blinds were broken . .Facilties were basic . It was also cold as the heating went off early .

    Location is great and very convenient for car parking, supermarkets and the beach etc .

    We found the property a little cold and the resting temperature of the thermostat was too low. A couple of pointers… a proper grill pan and rack would be ideal as would blinds in the kitchen. I was surprised at the mismatched towels one of which was stained. The bathroom blind was broken and the bath tap fell off twice although was easily reattached.

    The cottage was exactly as the photos depicted, the bed was comfortable and the location was ideal. we did manage to get parking outside on the street for most of our stay which was definitely a bonus.

    The kitchen, did not have a cupbard ,to put your food in. Had to store everything on the larg window sill . You would not be able to do that in the summer . The light fitting in the bathroom was missed, As had cobwebs and lots of dust on it . . The house in general was clean . We realy enjoyed . Cupbard , did dug me . As would of liked to put my food items away instead of all left out . But was still a lovely little place . Thank you .

    Very cosy little house ,excellent for our dog ,as he was able to come in and out ,from back yard as wanted and couldn't get out anywhere. Was perfect for what we wanted .

    Central heating didn't seem to work in the twin bedroom, didn't complain because we weren't using that bedroom anyway. One of the windows on the landing wouldn't close because the handle was broken but again didn't complain because it wasn't too much of a big deal. Just a little bit of a cold draft. There is also a tiny window in the bedroom that didn't have a blind or curtain on it. I doubt anyone would have been able to see in but would have felt more private with a blind or curtain.

    Really nice cottage in a good location. Everything you need is there. The huge bath was amazing! That's something that enticed us to this place. Host was really helpful, she called before we got there to make sure we had the code to get the key out of the lock box.

    WiFi is very poor which with children and young adults isn't helpful. We have stayed in other properties in the same road where the WiFi and internet speeds are much much better so can only assume it's the package the host has selected

    Could do with a table lamp in the living room, as main lights are a tad harsh. Also consider providing salt and pepper. Otherwise really lovely property

    Proximity to the centre of town in a quiet street. We liked having breakfast on the terrace garden even in January! What didn’t you like
