    “Nice quiet location.”

    Appreciated milk and mince pies. Very well equipped cottage. Beds extremely comfy. Although the bathrooms and bedrooms were clean, the kitchen and lounge were not. Crumbs left on worktop and sofa. Hob very greasy. Splashes on lounge radiator (coffee? Sauce?) Because of covid I ran some wipes over stair handrail and the wipe-clean tablecloth and both came away dirty.
