We had a lovely week touring the area, and the cottage was lovely and clean and had everything you could want inside. However, this cottage is not dog friendly as advertised, insomuch as the garden has no gate to the left which leads directly into the neighbours garden and the road beyond. The “steep steps” into the lawned area and patio was in fact a step ladder. This meant anything bigger than a spaniel had zero chance of getting to the garden even I they were on the lead. I had to take them onto the grassed area in front of the property, and this meant running the gauntlet of the local dogs who were allowed to run round freely and harass any other dog they chose. Whilst I appreciate this is not the responsibility of the cottage/owner, this is something visitors need to be aware of.
The only issue in the cottage was in the complimentary drinks fridge. I’d already drunk 1 bottle of lager and opened a second when I spotted the best before dates... 3 lagers out of date Sept 2018, one out of date May 2018. One can of Tango also out of date. A fresh pint of milk would make for a better welcome pack.
