    “This is a feedback of two halves!”

    1. The house is extremely comfortable and very clean. The facilities I.e. cooking washing machine enclosed garden for the dogs were perfect ! The setting is beautiful with the woodland and the birds. 2. The access is very difficult for anyone with mobility problems. It is quite a distance from the car to the house. Anyone arriving in the dark would have a struggle as there isn’t a light. Finally and most puzzling is the bedding in the double bedroom. I understand the need to protect the ...

    1. The house is extremely comfortable and very clean. The facilities I.e. cooking washing machine enclosed garden for the dogs were perfect ! The setting is beautiful with the woodland and the birds. 2. The access is very difficult for anyone with mobility problems. It is quite a distance from the car to the house. Anyone arriving in the dark would have a struggle as there isn’t a light. Finally and most puzzling is the bedding in the double bedroom. I understand the need to protect the mattress but the waterproof on the bed would keep out even “Storm Babet” ! In addition given the quality of the fittings in the house why on earth would you use such cheap bedding. The house deserves more. Please don’t spoil this lovely house for the want of good cotton bedding with NO STATIC. Overall I loved the house and would recommend with these caveats.

    Thank you for your feed back, it was great to see your enjoyed your stay at Hunters Cottage with a 10/10 score. To reply to the points you have raised, there is a paragraph on the website about the access from the car park and as we move to the darker nights the cleaner will leave the outside light on. Mattress protectors are necessary but we can have look at changing that one. Thank you and hope to see you again soon. The Owner Relation Team. Property Owner
