• "Lovely little cottage, beautifully renovated, good for a family of three."

  Our son loved the attic bedroom. Really appreciated the games- played labyrinth 3 nights in a row. Would have found iplayer really useful...No way of logging into our account? Parking quite tricky

  Thank you for your feedback. So pleased you enjoyed the games! The top bedroom is lovely. We are looking into getting a smart TV. Property Owner

• "The front garden we felt that the large wooden cupboard which was empty and couldn't be used for the wheelie could have been enlarged for the wheelie bins making the sitting space more acceptable."

  The log stove was in a poor condition as the rope seal on the door was hanging off, rendering it completely inefficient . (We are used to using wood burners). Upstairs shower controls were not working well. In the second floor double bedroom a coat hook was fixed about halfway down the door. Making it useless.

  Thankyou for your feedback. We are sorry about the woodburner as we did not realise the rope was hanging off- it is quite a new stove- we will of course fix this as soon as possible, along with the shower controls. As the property is grade 2 listed we are unable to make changes in the garden as you suggest but will endeavour to look at other ways to change this if possible. We hope you had a lovely stay and again thankyou for your feedback. Property Owner

• "Very nicely renovated."

  Comfy beds with fluffy duvets and lovely crisp white covers. Few little things missing from the kitchen, grater, meat pan, more tea towels. Top bedroom curtains don’t meet and the lamp should be by the bedside not 10’ away. Could do with a map of the area and coast. It o really very attractive.

  Thanks for your feedback. I am sorry about the Cheese grater as we did buy one for property, we will definitely buy another one and look at getting a meat pan. We are already planning on replacing the curtains too. A map for the house is a great idea, one I didn't think of so thankyou! We are glad you liked the house as we think it's attractive too, and the beds are really comfy. Property Owner

• "I have marked the property down simply on the basis of parking."

  When we arrived there was nowhere to park so I parked on the neighbour’s drive (no. 16) for a few minutes to unload our heavy cases and dog crate. The neighbour called down over his intercom to my wife demanding we move the car immediately. I ignored this but we were unable to park in Diments Garden during our stay and I was worried how I could load the car on departure. Luckily I was able to get a place on the very last morning so I avoided another confrontation- I was planning to park on the pavement outside no 16’s drive. During the week I didn’t see a single car on no 16s drive. If I owned Rooemakers Cottage I would see if he’d let people park on his drive for, say, 30 minutes for a reasonable sum. It would make a huge difference. We were able to park in Hospital Lane every day which wasn’t really a problem otherwise. Other minor points - my wife suggested a make up mirror would be good. Our granddaughter slept in the upstairs room on Sunday afternoon and my son thought the curtains were very thin so it was very light in the room. Otherwise everything was absolutely fine - clean and comfortable.

  Thankyou for your feedback, we appreciate your comments. We will certainly get a make up mirror for the bedroom and we are already looking at the curtains as we are aware they are thin, they came with the house. With the cottage there is no other option than the on-street parking but we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
