French windows from the parking area lead into the large open-plan living area, a light and airy modern space with wooden flooring and distinctive lounge, dining and kitchen areas.

Very comfortable repeat stay. Just like to point out that the smoke alarms were disconnected. I replaced the lower floor one but the upper floor connection set the alarms going! Juliet balcony door frame is separating at base due to wet rot. Hopefully sorted for next year

Living accommodation spacious,nicely presented and well equipped. Kitchen equally well equipped with a good range of appliances. Would benefit from better instruction on use. Downstairs master bedroom was of a good size with adequate furnishings/ storage.En suite was a good size, but short on space for toiletries etc., no hooks for hanging garments, no toilet roll holder and the towel rail (only place to hang towels) only heated if/when main central heating came on. 2nd bedroom not of a size to be fairly described as an adult double. Has 2 single beds which virtually fills the whole floor space making it very difficult to get on/ around side of the beds and the wardrobe doors could only be partially open as a result. Half the wardrobe contained a water tank, the only shelf was filled with spare bedding and the floor of the small usable half was filled with christmas decorations. Additionally there was a small bedside table and in a recess a chest of drawers, but no mirror. The 2nd bathroom was minimally equipped i.e nowhere to hang towels etc; no antislip shower mat; no soap dish in shower and toilet roll holder. Outside table & 2 chairs were in very poor condition.The downstairs paved area & the outside of the property generally would benefit from some TLC.

We arrived after quite a long journey and thoughtful touches like tea and milk left for us. Lovely clean cottage and grounds for 2 dogs with a water view. Two bathrooms were great! Very clean linen and would stay again. Thank you!

In need of some TLC. Outdoor furniture needed staining. Windows needed cleaning Second bedroom needs much attention. One plug no mirror pillows too soft that they collapsed under pressure. Not enough room. Drawers needed waxing and were noisy. Kitchen ok. WiFi ok. The two mile road to Dittisham was not for the faint hearted.
