I was very disappointed that we couldn't turn the heating up, it spoiled our trip which was for my husband's 65th birthday.

Despite the Internet router saying connected we could not connect to the Internet using the info provided or on the base of the router. There needs to be an oven operation manual. The 2nd bedroom had loads of cobwebs especially down the side of the wardrobe and between the shower and basin. The shower in bedroom 2 needs a shower mat. I slipped several times. The blind in the 2nd bedroom could do with being replaced with a black out blind. When the sun rose you were instantly awake as it was way too bright. Neither of the bedroom tvs worked as would not connect to the Internet. The router shelf in the main bedroom needs repairing as falling off the wall. That said, the location and views were perfect.
