I was very disappointed when we arrived with the cleanliness for example there were crumbs all over the toaster. The open fire was hidden by an electric fire. We found this out after reading another review. There was no starter pack of fuel, no coal bucket and no way of removing the ashes. The cottage was extremely draughty and had no 'welcoming feel'. The living room door would not stay closed and kept 'blowing open' with the draught.The porch smelled awful.We asked for a bulb for the living room lamp but none was supplied. We tried to report that the dishwasher leaked badly but the telephone call was 'disconnected' so we decided not to use it following all the reviews saying how unhelpful the owner was.
