The cottage was adequate and we would possibly visit in the future. Unfortunately, certain areas were dated especially the bathroom which made the cottage feel unloved, scissors in the kitchen drawer were broken. It would only take a little TLC to get this property from average to good. Also, please be aware it is in the flight path of Bournemouth Airport so if you are a light sleeper this will disturb your sleep. Flights noise from 7am.
