    “I thought there was a hairdryer listed, I didn't take one but there wasn't one.”

    A nice bar area but no corkscrew but these are minor issues. Our main quibble about the cottage was the parking. We were informed parking was available on the street subject to availability. All but one of the parking spaces were private so we thought it would be OK to park here, it was very dangerous to park on the street where there are no yellow lines.

All but one of the parking spaces were private so we thought it would be OK to park here, it was very dangerous to park on the street where there are no yellow lines. Someone else did this and I stepped out of the door onto the pavement and was nearly run over by a car which had mounted the pavement to get past. We went out for the day got back around 7 pm only to find that a car had parked over the two spaces to stop anyone parking there obviously a disgruntled neighbour which we thought was very childish. If we were not allowed to park there why was there no sign or we would have moved our car if asked. We spent the next hour looking for a space, there were none in the car parks recommended and there never was throughout our stay. We had to park each day in the Masons car park at least a quarter of a mile away which was quite a trek with shopping, etc. It didn't spoil our holiday we really loved the cottage but it was an issue, a space should be available for a car.
