“We had a lovely stay over the weekend, plenty of room for four adults!”
Good location to local town and good information provided from the owner. The cottage is very cosy and comfortable and has everything you could possibly need, would definitely stay again!!
The only bad point I could pick up on is that check out was 10am and the cleaners arrived at 0945, we were all packed up and ready but it felt a bit rude for the cleaners to turn up before the allocated check out time.
I am glad you had a lovely stay. Please accept my apologies for the cleaners untimely arrival. I completely agree this would make you feel rushed. I will speak to the cleaner and ask them come a bit later in future.
Thank you for your feedback, it's very much appreciated.
Kind regards, Jacqueline
