One minor thing you may wish to think of - the internal doors slam automatically and make a loud noise. Some door frame liners/softeners may help with this.

1) A small rack placed inside the en-suite shower for holding user items: gel, spounge, flannel, soap etc would be helpful. 2) A dish rack on the kitchen sink for holding tea cups,side plates,etc after light washing and which do not need, or justify the use of the dishwasher.

Would recommend and weâre looking to re-book for next Summer.
