What should have been a fairly pleasant stay was spoiled when we were locked out of our property. Guests should be aware that the front door, once shut, cannot be opened from the outside without a key. Something that we weren't made aware of to our cost! Fraser gained access for us again but had to use a locksmith and informed us during our stay that he would be claiming the cost from us!- something that we disputed at the time and are still disputing.
The cottage itself though is surprisingly quiet and heating and hot water were spot on as was the large bath. Cleanliness in the cottage was good as well and there was clean bedding with comfy beds.
The kitchen has a very basic level of equipment ( no plate rack, scissors, salt , oil etc ) so best suited to those who eat out or use take-aways.
Externally, the garden/courtyard could do with a tidy up as could the parking area which we found littered with plastic recycling. There were a few other things that needed attention and we have made Fraser aware. A plus point was seeing the parakeets in the trees and we were visited in the garden by a fox one evening!
I wish that our stay had been a completely positive experience, but, because of the above issues, we will remember this stay for all the wrong reasons.
