We didn't get to meet Jo but this was expected as she emailed us to say she'd be away. We appreciated that she left milk, butter and bananas in the fridge for us.
Everything worked and was as we had been lead to expect from Jo's description. It was light, clean and tidy and well-supplied.
It was nice to be able to open all the French doors out onto the decks and get air flowing as the cottage got very hot in summer.
It was a few minutes walk from the lake and not too far from the shops.
