  : Nice comfy cottage. It was a perfect place to stay when visiting friends over New year. Very convenient for two local pubs and plenty of walks.
  : Didn't bother us as we were out and about. But I could imagine no TV might be a problem for some, especially if the weather wasn't good.

  : the whole look and the bed was so comfortable
  : no tv, which meant you heard the boiler rattling. as I believe theres a airlock or issue with it.

  : Amazing location, a lovely cottage with a real rustic feeling yet with comfort. Seemless checking in procedure and nice emails to welcome you to the cottage that night. We would stay here again for sure if they make a couple of changes and worth noting below.
  : Double bed is quite small with a small duvet meaning it only just covers you both. We located a space in a cupboard so we had a duvet each. There is a water pipe that vibrates downstairs which woke us up during the night a lot so we didn't sleep well, we did email to feed this back and hopefully it can be resolved. It's an old house and you expect some pipe noises but this is something else. Hopefully, they can solve this one.

  : I recently stayed at Rock View in Alton on Monday and Tuesday night. We arrived about 6 pm on Monday after a long drive. The house was cold when we arrived around 13 degrees. Hub for heating said it was heating up, however over the course of the evening nothing happened. I tried setting the hub to manual but it did not work. I also could not get the gas fire in the living room to work either. We left for Alton Towers on the Tuesday and came back around 7 pm. When we left in the morning the heating hub said it was heating from 14 to 19 degrees. When we returned the cottage was still freezing and again I tried to set it to manual but again no heat. Did call your office and spoke to someone who tried to get a plumber to come out to have a look but there was no one available. At one point I was sitting on the toilet with the fan heater above me on to get some heat. I would point out that there was hot water so there was no problem with the boiler. My daughter and her friend went to bed freezing, my daughter pointing out that she could see her breath. Whilst the cottage was lovely I do not feel that I can leave a good review based on my experience. Maybe a more comprehensive set of instructions are required for the heating hub. One final point I found a wooden spoon in a basket which was very dirty. I let it soak in some hot water to get whatever was stuck on it to come off.

  : The only negative would be that the bedding in the main bedroom had a musky smell
