There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide a score for this category.

Very good communication from the owner and a simple check in/out procedure. Appreciated being able to check in early. Well equipped cottage with everything we could have needed. Lovely log fire which we made use of.Stairs to the upper floor are interesting with low doors and steep steps but these are in character with the age of the cottage,Many thanks for the welcome pack and the recommendations for local places to visit and eat.
