Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Our stay was pleasant and met needs during the week stay. Overall we found the Cottage comfortable to stay in and it was in a lovely quite area. And accessible for days out . I like the pluggin night lights as it can be very dark in the college at night.
Negative: The college had a smell to it when you first went in it did feel damp inside the Cottage. the bedroom with the two single beds upstairs are a bit old and rickety and the mattresses weren't too good to sleep on. there was some areas of cleanserness that could have been cleaned better. one of the blankets smelt of dog. the tumble dryer was full of water as the tank had not been empted, no floor broom, although there was a small hoover in the cupboard, no bins in the bathroom areas. the downstairs bathroom did not have a blind so you couldn't have a bath even though part of the glass was frosted. It stated in welcome book about leaving the BBQ clean, but there wasn't one to use, only coal bags piled up under the shelter and that area needed a good clean nowhere to hang any washing. they provided an airer, which was flimsy and not adequate. The gas detection box was sat on the shelf above the fireplace and didn't appear to be working. Most of these things that I have listed are easily to be put right to make an outstanding stay.
Summary: Although there was a list of bits and pieces that could have been improved we very much enjoyed our
