Observatory Cottages

Cosy cottage

Nothing

The cottage itself and the location are absolutely beautiful and feel almost magical.

The cottages lacked several amenities that were promised at booking. My booking stated there would be breakfast included, when I arrived I was told that there was no breakfast service since COVID. So we had to change our entire plans on shortest notice to organize breakfast for ourselves. The place further lacked robes and slippers that were promised as amenities, and the tub missed it's plug, rendering it unusable during our stay.

The cottage was lovely, cosy and warm. The ambiance of the gas’s log fire created that ideal romantic evening.

It would have been nice to have deck and veranda at the back of the cottage for more privacy.

Nice breakfast

Found bed way to firm ended up with a sore back. Too much noise from next door they arrived home at midnight and you could hear every foot step on the floor boards. They also had a shower and it sounded like the bathroom shower was on the other side of the bedroom wall as you could hear the water running and going down the shower drain. Didn’t get a good night sleep so woke up with a huge headache from lack of sleep and my sore back which ruined our high tea plans for the Sunday. I don’t think we would return book this property again.
