Cottage has an amazing view. It has been very neglected.Walls are damp and cracked. The lounge smells damp from the workshop on the side. Beds are old and lumpy. Washing machine is rusty so the rust goes on wet clothes…The kitchen needs to be restocked eg no peeler, no whisk, only one roasting tray etc. the kitchen cupboards reek of damp. The fridge and freezer both drip water in to the cupboard below. There were no instructions save for a manual for the cooker…Definitely does not deserve a 4* rating but could be lovely. The view is amazing and cottage is so convenient and quiet.
