“The property is in a lovely area with good walks and an interesting coastline nearby.”
It is clean, tidy, well equipped and cosy. The central heating seemed not to have any set pattern to when it operated until the day prior to our departure which coincided with the other 2 cottages being occupied. It was often cold but we bought a number of bags of logs for the stove which was efficient and easy to operate.
Disappointingly, one of the photographs is of a sea view which is only visible from the open doorway with a strip of the sea visible in the far distance. The other views from the sides of the cottage are of outbuildings, the rear of the owners property, gravel hardstanding for parked vehicles and a close hedge on one side and on the other side of it is of the side of a large industrial building/barn in close proximity, a rusty shipping container and a gravelled seating area described as a garden.
An honest and accurate description would avoid disappointment.
Thank you for your feedback, it is lovely to hear that you thought Dairy Cottage was clean, tidy, well equipped and cosy. The central heating in the cottage is available all day and night with a digital thermostat so the temperatures can be altered up or down for personal preference and each radiator also has its own control so that each room can be adjusted to suit. The thermostat switches the heating on and off to maintain the temperature chosen. We are always happy to help guests with any queries they may have and are happy to assist with the thermostat if required. Our details are clearly displayed in the guest information book in the cottage and we are also close at hand if any problems. Unfortunately on this occasion we were not contacted by the guests and were not made aware of an issue until reading this public review. There are many photos of the cottage on the listing and all of the photos of the interior and garden of the cottage were taken fairly recently by a Sykes representative to give a clear picture of the cottage and outside area including photos that clearly show the sea view though the open front door. We are not aware how the photos can be described as not accurate or honest! There is a container in the neighbouring farmers field which they use as an animal shelter for their sheep. This is behind a growing laurel hedge which will provide further screening in the future. I apologise that this disappointed you. We are very lucky that Dairy Cottage is located in such a lovely area and many previous guests have commented on how much they enjoyed the stunning open countryside and beautiful views to the sea directly from the cottage.
