“A comfortable cottage with good beds, sofa, showers, TV and WiFi.”
The cottage needs a deeper clean between lets as we found dirty crockery and coins under furniture etc. We felt the housekeeper is not given enough time to do this properly despite the late check in time of 4 pm. As we find with so many cottages it could do with a bit of TLC in places, e.g. replacing the upstairs bathroom door handle etc.
The location is good as it is only a 15 minute (hilly) walk to shops, pubs and beach. We had wet weather so sadly didn’t get to use the garden but imagine this does not get a lot of sun but did have a nice table, chairs and bench. The driveway has been poorly designed and we had to park very close to the neighbours fence to avoid scraping the bottom of the car. We drive a normal family saloon and could not understand how this design was ever signed off by the developer.
Despite the weather (which no one can predict!) we had a comfortable and pleasant stay in this well equipped cottage.
We're so sorry that you didn't get a chance to use the garden - the weather has been a real mixture!
Thanks for letting us know about the door handle and cleanliness issues. We would not wish guests to arrive and find the property hasn't been prepared to a good standard, and would always encourage you to contact us on arrival so that we can put it right for you.
We have not received any other comments about the driveway being difficult to use, but will make the owner aware of your comments.
We hope you enjoyed your stay in Lyme.
