Gorgeous Cottage in Skirmett with Parking

Pretty cottage in nice village overlooking fields. Rooms were all lovely and beds comfortable.

Garden out back was messy and rundown. Some machine by the patio gave off an oil smell which was unpleasant when sitting outside which we did a lot.

A very cute and comfortable cottage in a very pretty part of the UK

Only one toilet made it tricky with 4 adults staying

We had an overnight stay with my sister and nephew, there was plenty of room in the cottage that had out side seating arrangement, which we used to watch the Kite riding on the thermals it was wonderful relaxing for all. The information left in the cottage hand book was read and was extremely useful, taxi company was great and the fact we had internet was a bonus as our mobiles would not work at all without it. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness and help

The different floor levels with it being an old cottage as you entered another room , although most of the group staying managed this one members glasses didn’t.

Brilliant perfect location

Clean tidy warm and secure

Everything

Nothing

It’s a proper old English cottage with lots of preserved old features which is rare. It was clean. Ideal for our dogs as all of the downstairs floors are tiles so it’s cool and there is a small garden fenced off on all sides. Very simple communication throughout.

Nothing.

The cottage is quaint, with lots of character and a good size kitchen. Bedding good quality and beds comfortable

The ceilings are low with beams reducing the head height further. This was expected. Generally there was a feel that it needed a deep clean. Stairs hazardous but there is a rope handrail to hold onto. Our main problem was that about 9am on day of departure (check out 12MD), just as we were sitting down to our poached eggs in the garden the next door neighbour arrived to say that the shared cess pit had overflowed and was flooding his garden (poached eggs no longer seemed attractive). We were urged not to use any water so had to leave unwashed dishwasher and egg pan, also no shower possible or use of toilet. Contact number for management in property folder went to answer phone, husband also sent what’s app and later in day got brief ‘sorry for any inconvenience’ message. That is literally what it said. My message to management via booking.com app has not been answered more than 24 hours later. We feel this was a significant, avoidable incident and should at least have been offered a partial refund as were only there for one night and this has major impact on our enjoyment, forcing us to go off and seek alternative toilet facilities while feeling unwashed on one of the hottest days of the year. Very disappointing.
