Overall, we had a lovely stay at this property. It could have used a thorough deep clean and cob web run and tidied the garden area up a little. Other than that it had everything we needed. Easy check in process too.

#### COZY & COMFY
We could not connect to the internet on the TV, which was very disappointing, so we had only free-to-air channels and could not connect to Netflix. The process of connecting to the internet on our phones was unnecessarily clunky too with the 2 step process The spar was lovely, but there were insufficient towels and only one tea towel

#### Need to sack the cleaner
The cottage lounge, kitchen and bedroom at first glance was beautiful. That was until we found all the dirty dishes. Amazing exposed beams, but full of cobwebs. The bed looked comfy, but the bedding didn’t fit. Lovely furnishings, but with daddy long legs everywhere. Nice court yard, but with the previous occupants Red wine spilt all over the table. Property was really close to shops and the beach which was fantastic. Overall could have been beautiful, if it was clean.
