The property the cottage sits on is absolutely beautiful. The cottage itself is very dated and lacking amenities and polish expected at this price- no ice cube trays, no coffee maker/French press. The other big issue was the wood and coal burning stove is the sole source of heat and hot water. It went out while we were at dinner and again over night. We did not go on holiday to have to tend to a stove overnight. The cottage could use some serious updating and TLC.
