Open kitchen, dining and living room, bathroom are very clean. Bedrooms are fairly clean, may improve for cleaning of the beds. A few hinges of the cabinets for clothings need to repair. WiFi and TV are excellent. The house and facilities are family friendly, except that there is no dishwasher, no box tissue, no kitchen paper and only 1 roll of tissue paper was provided for 5 persons for staying 4 days/3 nights.
Location is excellent
But for the price we paid…
There’s no shower gel, no teas/coffees, salt & pepper shaker are empty
No sponges for washing up
There’s 2 flights of stairs to climb from the car park carrying cases up & down was difficult/dangerous
Toilet flush didn’t work and Skye’s cottage- communication was poor- the chat says ‘an agent would contact you’ but they never, I had to call them when their office is open to get it sorted
Check in? The keys were left in the lock at the front door when we arrived!!

Poor condition property.
There was a damp smell upon arrival. When we looked around we could see there had been a leak from the bathroom staining the ceilings and carpets. The bathroom door did not lock and there property was generally in a poor state of repair. Marks on every wall and paint peeling from the window sills. Cracked and rocking tiles throughout downstairs. The oven was dirty. Despite the listing stating there was wi-fi an instruction on the table stated there was not. Over priced for the condition of the property.
