This well appointed and clean, small cottage features a garden setting and a modern bathroom. We appreciated the complimentary bottle of wine and use of bicycles--there is an attractive bike path along the nearby river--and the ample tea selection.
The cottage would benefit from newer towels and shower soap. Caveat: A clear statement of the house wine policy on the guest note would also be helpful. We found four bottles of wine chilling in the fridge but discovered only by calling the host's daughter that the charge was $15 per bottle after the complimentary first bottle.
We also generally expect a top sheet on our bed rather than just a duvet.
We believe most of the minor issues we had with things like bike locks & AC could have been resolved had host been reachable rather than dealing with the host's daughter, who was helping out her parents and trying to do her best under the circumstances, as they had an emergency which took them out of town. To her credit she did offer us a top sheet for our second night but as she explained the duvet was freshly laundered we did not want to trouble her as we recalled how busy we were when we had young children.
Our stay was pleasant, and, with a few tweaks, we would stay here again.
