Just a few little things Iâd like to mention. Not practical I know, but a door across the bathroom upstairs , even if itâs a half one for a bit of privacy would have been an added bonus. Couldnât get the underfloor heating to work in there as well. Brilliant idea with the timed towel rails though. Excellent showers. One outside chair broken. Just come unglued. Left it to one side. Everything else amazing.
