Mishmash was amazing, the rooms were large with floor to ceiling windows. The grounds were home to some much wildlife. The only complaint I have is that there was no drying rack, fortunately a resident lent us one.

Failure to deal with longstanding issue of crow attacking main bedroom french window at 5 am. Moved to second bedroom with agreement of cottages.com agent. Heated towel rail in en suite not working. Main light in second bedroom not working. No bedside lights in second bedroom. Excellent apartment with lovely views let down by lack of attention to detail such as provision of bare minimum of toilet rolls and dishwasher tablets.

Good WiFi, good heating system. The patio doors opening out on to a large seating area overlooking the arnside viaduct and bay.Fabulous week. I will be back.
