The cottage is quite nice and cosy but a number of issues with the basic functionality left us pretty disappointed. The immersion for the hot water was not working properly. I spent a lot of timing turning on and off taps and then we could only get a slow trickle of warm water for a few minutes. The shower is really nice but we couldn't enjoy it, when it did get going it cut out mid way through a shower 😣. The fridge had a really bad smell and wasn't very cold, but we had a lot of food with us so we had to use it anyway.
The hosts are permanently out of the country which is not stated anywhere. This doesn't actually matter because Dan's sister is more than helpful and a great host but it just feels a bit disingenuous to say they are away "at the minute" in their communication.
All that being said, the location of the cottage and the overall experience were positive. I would probably stay here again, from looking at the other reviews I assume we were just unlucky.
