Overall, guests find the cottage comfortable, with specific mentions of cosy spaces and good-sized bedrooms. However, a few guests noted that the beds could be more comfortable, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, including the kitchen and entertainment options. Some minor issues were raised regarding maintenance and the need for modernisation, which suggests room for improvement.
