Bramble Cottage was compact yet beautifully designed, very tidy and clean. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the welcome pack (bread, butter, etc.) was a nice touch. However, upon our arrival, the heating had not been turned on, making it quite cold inside. We did manage to turn it on, but being made of stone, the cottage took over 12 hours to warm up. We ended up sitting on the sofa wrapped in our coats and blankets until we finally gave in and went to bed just to stay warm. The bathroom was lovely, featuring a large bath that I had been looking forward to after a long, chilly day of walking, but sadly, the hot water was only lukewarm. This was quite disappointing, although the shower was hot and powerful. I did communicate with the representative from the service, who mentioned that the cottage had been unoccupied for several weeks and the caretaker should have activated the heating. If we hadn't been so exhausted after a 5-hour journey, we might have considered heading back home.
