Stayed in many Cottages.com properties over the years and this was one of the worse. Unfortunately we did not find the property to be as described. TV was very old and Netflix didn't work. Suggest you bring an extension cable if you want to use electronic devices as very few power sockets. Very little usable floor space in bedroom because of sloping ceiling and nowhere to hang your clothes. Towel rail not working and nowhere to hang your clothes when taking a shower. Finally, if you like eating al fresco in a bin store looking at walls this place is for you.
