We felt instantly relaxed and at home. Beds were comfy and the shower was nice and powerful. The cottage had been cleaned to a high standard and refurbished brilliantly (there was an issue with some unclean curtains which Iâm sure will be remedied. )We personally felt a bit exposed with the interior wall window in the double bedroom that had a sky light on the stairs right behind it. A curtain on that would stop the daylight if you wanted a lie in and provide more privacy from the properties behind but we would definitely recommend the Toll House to friends and hope to return ourselves.

Beds were so comfy ! However there were a couple of issuesâ¦the cottage could really do with double glazing, on a number of occasions we literally couldnât hear the tv because of the traffic noiseâ¦motor bikes (usually groups of them) one group decided to stop outside the cottage for a chat , probably deciding their ongoing route, also lorries driving past. We also made the mistake of leaving the bedroom windows open while we were out (only slightly) we came back to pools of water on the internal windowsill as it had been raining. The other issue we had was the toilet, once it had been flushed it took an absolute age for the cistern to refill, probably about 15 minsâ¦..not ideal when there are a few people staying at the cottage. Hopefully we donât sound petty because overall the cottage was fab but these issues did spoil the stay slightly.
