    Cottage is in need of some general upkeep and cleanliness. Pots and oven trays were really dirty and all needed washing, table mats full of old dried on food , glasses all marked and full of bits, everthing needed washing and cleaning basically. shower in the main en suite not working, handle on the shower in main bathroom broken off. No glove or handle for the log burner and nothing to light it with , although staff at the hotel did bring some kindling and matches when I rang to ask about it. Washing machine not working stuck in an empty cycle so couldn’t use it when we needed to. The sofas are marked and worn and very hard/uncomfortable. No chair and footstool in the lounge as per the photos. The cottage has real potential but shouldn’t be advertised as 5 stars at all.
