“We would like to say that the Thatched cottage is a charming and generally well appointed cottage - however it is completely blighted by the road - the traffic was constant, dangerous and fast driving past the property day and night, which meant relaxing in the lounge largely impossible and did not make for restful nights sleep, as both main bedrooms are on the road side.”
The garden was very overgrown - especially the lawn and garden furniture very shabby. Overall the cottage was clean and tidy. We had to request extra bin bags and both bulbs in the bathroom needed replacing.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you found The Thatched Cottage charming, clean, and well appointed — it’s a lovely, characterful property with a great deal of history, and we're glad you appreciated its unique charm.
We’re sorry to hear that you found the roadside location disruptive during your stay. The cottage is situated in a setting where traffic levels can vary, and while many guests enjoy the convenience of the location, we understand this may not suit everyone’s preferences. We’ve made note of your comments to help manage expectations for future guests.
With regard to the garden, this is regularly maintained and was recently attended to prior to your stay. That said, we do appreciate that styles of garden maintenance can be quite subjective. The garden furniture is traditional cast iron, in keeping with the age and style of the cottage, and we feel that this and the mature feel of the garden complement the property's historic character.
Thank you for bringing the bathroom bulbs and bin bag request to our attention. These have now been addressed to ensure the next guests enjoy a smooth and comfortable experience.
We always appreciate constructive feedback and hope you were still able to enjoy your time exploring the surrounding area.
