“Stunning views, and Johnshaven is a gorgeous place.”
+The cottage was lovely and the views were stunning. Great having an enclosed garden for the dog.
−Just a personal thing probably but the double bed was not very comfy, the mattress was too hard for us, so unfortunately we didn't get a very good nights sleep. Also blackout curtains for the bedrooms maybe an idea for the future.

“Fantastic Myrtle Cottage !”
+The cottage is in a picture perfect location with superb facilities and a lovely enclosed garden. Everything was immaculate and the property had a very pleasant ambience. My dog loved it too !
−The only thing I didn't like was the lack of clear instructions for the use of the electric hob, which I was therefore unable to operate.

“Most enjoyable have already mentioned it to friends and family that it is an excellent cottage.”
+The view and location were fab. The quality of the fixtures in all rooms including kitchen appliances were second to none. The cottage was very clean . A nice touch was having fresh milk in the fridge
−We couldn't find instructions for the 2nd remote control called Roku. As we were unsure about it and didn't want to mess about with it we didn't use it . The TV itself was fine.

“Nice, but watch the steps”
+Nice cottage, spectacular views. Cottage well kitted out.
−Although there is a photo of the interior steps on the website, we didn't appreciate just how high the risers were, making them very steep. There is no handrail on either side which made navigating them very difficult for slightly older people (60s). Also completely unsuitable for our small dog to go up & down. We actually came home 2 days early because of the issue with the steps.

“Quiet and peaceful coastal cottage”
+It was well equipped, clean and in a good location with stunning sea views.
−Far too many signs all over the place. These could’ve been incorporated in a guest book with information about the property and more suggestions about the surrounding area. The fixtures and fittings were of a high standard, however the decor was very tired and the whole place could do with redecoration. Additionally instead of all the warning notices a few photos or paintings of the local area would brighten the property. For the outside furniture it would be better to have the table with legs already attached and perhaps under a plastic cover all ready to use rather than the guests having to assemble/disassemble it. A few pots or tubs of flowers would vastly improve both the front and back gardens and make the spaces more appealing. A few tweaks could really elevate this cottage from functional/comfortable to wonderful!
