“We found the cottage as described but there were a series of issues which made our stay less than perfect.”
1.We couldn't turn on the oven. A maintenence man (Andy) came and found the well hidden fuse trip box.
2. The knows on the cooker we're broken so when it was on it was at the wrong temperature, so burnt food. Andy came back and took 2 of the 3 knobs.
3. The lock on the downstairs loo didn't work resulting in some multi generational embarrassment. We told Andy.
4. The washing machine door jammed which we opened using string (not damaged ) to get our clothes out.
5. The smoke alarm went off on ...

5. The smoke alarm went off on our last night. It was unreachable even when my 6 foot son stood on a table. Mia from the local office came at 1am. Alarm smashed off and removed. We asked Mia if we could have a later leave time which she did arrange but told us about it at 10.20ish am, after we had all left at 10am.
7. It's really cold when the wind blows, which is why you have fan heaters I imagine, but you could use extra blankets.
8. Please put some hooks on back of bedroom doors, and provide more than 1 tea towel fir a week.
It's a good cottage for our annual Lyme holiday of 4 generations, but all the issues were not good. Lyme Bay responded well.
