The stay was exactly what we were looking for. Piece and quiet and away from things for a couple of days. the River is amazing and on the cold nights the fireplace came in very handy. I'm sure I will re-book when next I have time..

The property is beautiful with amazing scenery and great location for getting away from it all...however we found it a little chilly and needed to look for firewood..on day 3 our water stopped working and it may have been an easy fix but we left the cottage due to needing the bathroom..no compensation was given for our last night stay as we left before problem of water was solved..not happy about the clause in rental agreement that covers the property for repairs especially in hygienic circumstances given the property is a little isolated..

Thank you for your feedback. We’re pleased you appreciated the beautiful setting, scenery and peaceful waterfront location. We do, however, want to clarify the position regarding the water issue and the rental terms. Our agreement requires guests to report issues during their stay so we have the opportunity to investigate and resolve them, and it also clearly states that compensation is not provided for the unexpected unavailability of utilities, including water. We understand that being without water is disruptive, particularly at an isolated property, but leaving before the issue could be resolved does not override the agreed booking terms or automatically entitle a guest to a refund for the unused portion of the stay. Your comments regarding heating and firewood have also been noted.
