MISS WORSNOP
A lovely holiday house in a beautiful village. It was super clean throughout, a little dated in some areas but didn't affect our stay. A tidy small compact and fully secure garden for our little dogs, added bonus of access to the garage where there was a hosepipe so we could wash the dogs down after the beach. Just a few minor comments; A little dated in some areas, the freezer was in desperate need of de-frosting, we couldn't set the timer on the oven to be able to get the oven on (why ovens are turned off I'll never understand!), so resorted to the microwave, and the latch on the gate was broken so we had to keep dragging a heavy bench to stop the gate swinging open (We left a note for the service team to consider repairing it). Also, the mattress in the smaller room was a tad lumpy. Sounds like more negatives than positives, but we truly had a lovely stay at this little bungalow.
