We have just spent 4 nights at the cottage as a party of 8 adults with 4 children. The booking process, checking in and house information was easy and well managed. The house location is stunning, with a breath taking view from every window. The house has well sized rooms, lovely en-suites and the living spaces suited us brilliantly. The lounge area was particularly lovely. The floors and most surfaces were very clean. There were some aspects of the house that were a little tired. In the bathrooms there were loose toilet seats, loose taps and sinks that didn’t drain well. In the kitchen the dishwasher didn’t clean brilliantly which led to cups appearing dirty - however when we re washed these by hand they came up clean. The kitchen is well stocked - however a few of the drawers were tricky to pull in and out and were quite dirty, and the pan carousel cupboard was too stiff to turn. Quite a few of the pans and utensils were also dirty or broken - again I think this was due to the dishwasher not working well.
We had a few issues whilst staying at the house. The first was that we didn’t have enough bedding/beds made up. This was because they now limit bookings to parties of 10, and as we’d booked over a year ago they hadn’t spotted we were a party of 12. The host was easy to contact, responded immediately and this was sorted straight away by a lovely lady who also gave excellent beach recommendations. The second issue involved the geothermal heating system which stopped working 2 nights into our stay. This left us with no heating or hot water. This wasn’t sorted during our stay and we were all sharing 1 electric shower, no heating (luckily it wasn’t too cold) and the babies couldn’t be bathed. Again the host was very lovely but didn’t remedy this during our stay. Overall we would definitely consider returning as the location is unbeatable, and the house could be perfect with a few things sorting out.
