I had a lovely night at Strawbale Cottage, it was more spacious than I anticipated with lots of room in the living area. The parking and check in was easy, and there was a comfortable bed and bathroom with lovely toiletries. There were a few issues with my stay though, the cottage was extremely dusty and there were a lot cobwebs around. The bug screens need updating, as does the paint/plaster on the walls (it is cracked and peeling in many places). There were many bugs (cockroaches included) around inside the cottage. The outdoor area also needs updating, it was extremely dirty, run down and almost unusable. Overall I had a pleasant stay, and enjoyed the fireplace.
