United Kingdom
Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Beautifully presented cottage. My only small criticisms would be that there were no spare light bulbs - two failed during our stay - and the very elegant induction hob had no instructions, which wasn't too problematic but the thing simply isn't intuitive! And it's also very difficult to clean properly...
Negative: As above. Perhaps a bathrrom cloth for daily cleaning, an extra tea-towel for drying up, and the spare light bulbs. Otherwise very comfortable and luxurious.
Summary: We would definitely book again if we're coming to the Lakes.
