Confirmed Guest
Loverly location.Main bed was set as a twin not as a zip and link as advertised. All mattresses are well parts there best and the springs dig in.Bathroom door hits the sink, double bedroom door does not open completely so difficult for a disabled person to navigate with a stickKitchen extractor was dirty with grease.Mismatched dinner service. 3 square dinner plates and 1 round.Cocking utensils a little short, only a slotted serving spoon and no ladle. We also had to buy eco friendly toilet cleaner as non supplied to accommodate the septic tank. Layout is good and the shower was nice and hot.It’s the little points that need addressing.

We had a lovely return visit, very quiet relaxing area. The bungalow is spacious, clean and well equipped. A short drive to the beach, lovely dog walks nearby. The hot tub is a lovely bonus. Yes we would return.

Couldn’t contact owner by phone. Only one bed made up, an assumption was made that we would sleep together but I am disabled, and need a separate bed. We had to make the best of a bad job.No welcome pack, so no milk on arrival, a first for us. Just a few tea bags left by previous occupants.
