Mrs Horton, October 2019
September 2019
The cottage itself was restored to a high standard; the bed was comfortable as were the sofas.. As others had mentioned in the visitors' book, it is in need of a good deep clean. The kitchen utensils and crockery were not all thoroughly washed, and I had to wash them all before use. (One plate had actually been stacked DIRTY, as had a pan.) The kitchen had been equipped to a good basic level, but not with real love and enthusiasm, as has been the case in several cottages I use. I suppose @utilitarian' would describe it. The cottage is very conveniently situated with lovely walks and beach nearby, and despite some reservations, I would book it again. It's a pity there isn't a dishwasher, which would help with hygiene. The TV was not watchable in rainy weather (just when it is needed!) so a dish might be considered.
Also, as was mentioned frequently in the visitors' book, I was surprised there was no reference file: ref bins, local amenities etc. This is normally a given in rental cottages.
The tin opener was broken, and had also been mentioned previously.
I do not mind of you publish this or not. It is meant to be helpful.
