“We liked the cottage, and the overall make up of the site.”
The set of cottages grouped together was a very cosy setting. Parking close to the cottages was good, but could be larger. Could be trouble parking during busy months. The cottage itself was very nice. Bathroom small, but OK. Had a bit of trouble with the heating. Was told there were 2 switches. 1 for hot water, 1 for heating. Tried turning the heating switch off, but radiators were still hot. Had to go and turn off individual radiators in the end. I did not think this was worth reporting. Cottage could do with new sofa's. Existing sofa's are getting a bit tired. My only complaint would be about the on site bar. This was only open on a Friday & Saturday night. Understandable during October, but more opening hours would have been nice. The one time we went into the bar, we found out that we were only allowed on the outer terrace area with dogs. This terrace was pretty dark and dingy with picnic style tables and benches. These were not very comfortable. We therefore only stayed for one drink. I mentioned to the lady in reception about taking dogs into the bar, the next day. I was told, sorry, but its the law. Sorry, but I have not heard of any law regarding taking dogs into bars and pubs. There were many pubs in the local area that allowed dogs in. Some did have dedicated areas, but these areas were just as comfortable as the rest of the pub. Some pubs allowed dogs throughout. So it was disappointing that we could not sit in a more comfy area in the bar with our 2 well behaved dogs. We wouldn't let this put us off though. We would gladly come again, if the price is right.
