    “This cottage is lovely and very close to the shops, train and bus stations.”

    The property is listed as having two bathrooms; it has two full bathrooms, but also two additional toilets - so four altogether. The property also provides dog bowls and hair dryers, though they are not listed in the amenities. The property was spacious and clean.

    The property is listed as having two bathrooms; it has two full bathrooms, but also two additional toilets - so four altogether. The property also provides dog bowls and hair dryers, though they are not listed in the amenities. The property was spacious and clean. The kitchen was very well equipped with an array of pots, pans, baking tins and dishes, cutting boards, utensils and a cafetiere. The kettle was spotless! A dish towel is provided, but no oven mits/pot holders. This makes it very difficult to get your hot pans out of the oven without burning your fingers. There is an abundance of hand and soap and washing up liquid, but you will need to bring your own body wash/soap. There were towels and bath sheets, which I loved, that are nicely warmed on the large towel warmers in the bathrooms. Sykes is great They check in after your fist night to make sure you have everything you need and are very diligent and responsive. We had a lovely holiday!
