The cottage is frequently described as cosy and comfortable, with a particularly comfortable bed. However, some guests mention the property can be a bit dark inside, and the temperamental shower detracts slightly from the comfort score.
The well-equipped kitchen and the inclusion of a log burner are appreciated, but there are several mentions of a temperamental shower and the absence of a dryer, which affects the facilities score.
Guests mention thoughtful touches like biscuits, milk, and tea, which contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they are a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.
