There was no check-in - just a key code - which worked. Didn’t actually need more than that. The driveway is crazy narrow - I’d estimate .5 inches clearance from the stone walls of the nearly adjoining homes that shared this driveway.

Short break in sight of the Old Man

Great property, quirky layout as expected in a cottage of this age (lack of dishwasher very much a first world problem), nice views from the garden the only downsides being the radiator in the d/s bd/r wasn't working and the driveway is really only just wide enough for small cars not family/4x4 but we were out of season so parked on the road. No welcome pack was disappointing but I guess that's the margins of a corporate outfit rather than privately owned property. The recommended delivery service only delivers on Fridays and weekends which for a midweek break is not terribly helpful, thankfully we'd ordered from Tesco for delivery.
