“Cottage was brilliant, easily the best let we have taken.”
Usually we find there are items, such as washing soap, scourers, kitchen paper, not provided. Corner Barn provided just about everything we could need to make our week stay a truly worry free holiday. The appliances were all of a high standard, and felt new. Household utility items were all neatly stored. There was a well documented book of appliance instructions, and during our stay, we found the Internet connection always worked, and fast enough for our needs. It was sometimes the little things that impressed us. The well sourced water, free of chlorination, was great, either neat, or in tea. We had some nights of ground frost, and found the cottage stayed warm, even just using the electric radiators. With the wood burning stove suppling heat as well,
things were really cozy. Did we have any problems? Well, we never got to grips with the wi-fi linked TV. The guide made it sound easy, but to be honest, most nights we preferred to read or watch a DVD, so we never tried that hard to understand the system. We had a lovely time. The mid Dorset setting, just below the Ridgeway, with loads of good walking straight from the front door was our main reason for booking. The dog loved the holiday as much as we did. Any suggestions for improvement? A hosepipe in the central courtyard, so dirty footware and muddy dogs could be cleaned would be appreciated. Perhaps there already is such a facility, but we never found it.
