Lovely property,lounge carpet stained and needed cleaning.On stripping our bed on departure the mattress topper was badly stained.For longer stays a washing machine is a must.
Heel erg leuk huis op een goede plek om the Jurrasic coast te ontdekken.
Van alle gemakken voorzien en prachtig onderhouden tuin. Wel moet worden opgemerkt dat de druk op de douche matig was maar dat Sykes er alles aan gedaan heeft om het op te lossen, wat tijdens ons bedrijf nog niet gelukt was. Ik heb er vertouwen in dat dit op korte termijn is opgelost
Het huis is een aanrader voor een relaxe vakantie in het heerlijke Engeland van wandelen en pubs.
We loved our stay at Lychgate Cottage, the garden was very pretty, the property had a great layout a very big master bedroom and nice twin room, it was clean and fresh. There is a downstairs toilet and bath upstairs, remember to press the "boost" button when you have finished your shower or the water won't be hot for the next one. the kitchen was lovely, the TV was great don't forget to bring your own TV app passwords with you. The garden is enclosed as advertised but not escape proof depending on the dogs/children you have. Parking was not a problem for us but we can see why others had problems, you just have to park further down the road and walk. We parked up at the church when we were loading / unloading although you are not supposed to do this. The locals use the parking at the front of the church eventhough there are "church only" parking signs. Probably not great if you have serious mobility problems as its only and you have to duck and turn to get up the stairs and also getting into the bath is a yoga move but this did not affect us and we had a great time and were very sad to leave.
