Dotty's Cottage

A very cozy, modern, and cute cottage. Close to town, restaurants, shops, and more!

The property sits on a very busy and loud road. Due to the heat wave we had to leave windows open and it was hard to sleep with all of the noise. Lack of AC was very hard and more fans could have helped. There were no cushions on very uncomfortable patio furniture and we used this area a lot to get out of the hot cottage!

Very cute cottage. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and comfortable.

Not really a dislike, but situated on a very busy main road and not comfortable to have the windows open at night because of the noise, especially when you are there on the 3 hottest days of the year!!

Fantastic location. Spacious well presented house

Noisy due to main road. Suggest ear plugs if you are a light sleeper

The property was very clean and presentable. It smelled very clean and fresh on arrival and we could tell that great care was taken to prepare it for us. Complimentary tea, coffee and bottle of milk left in the fridge was a lovely touch. It seemed to have everything we needed for our 3 night stay.

A few maintenance issues - wobbly tap and bathroom door lock falling off. We also found that one of the en suite showers didn’t quite heat up well enough so we ended up using just one shower. It also didn’t quite drain well so the bathroom ended up flooded at times. Also the front and back door locks didn’t seem very secure. The biggest issue was the location. For those booking, please be aware that the property is situated on a busy A road which never sleeps.. cars, motorcycles, HGVs passing at all hours of the day and night. I had to sleep with my ear plugs in every night and it was still noisy. There doesn’t seem to be any noise isolation either - doors and windows not double glazed. It’s such a shame though because it is really a beautiful property. If not for the noise issue we would definitely have stayed again.
