“Millcroft was generally well-appointed and comfortable.”
We enjoyed our stay - thank you; though it didn't quite feel like it offered the value for money to which we are accustomed - thus the 4/5, not 5/5 (e.g. as of course one takes one's luck with weather in the Lake District, and on our weekend, the weather was poor).
A couple of specific minor improvements would be:
- First, for some new frying pans in the kitchen, as the non-stick coating was no longer non-stick on the larger ones; and
- Second, for a quieter/shorter-running extraction fan in the bathroom.
It would also have been useful to know that the parking was at the back of the property, just to save one of us having to scout for this on arriving (in the cold, dark and rain) on the Friday evening. We had understood the key safe to be at the rear entrance, but we didn't appreciate the parking was until scouting round to that.
We did remember to take our own towels, as was indicated in the pre-visit communications - though that they were required seemed a little odd, given bedding etc. was provided? (I wonder at the reasoning for that.)
Everything else was fine - e.g. the heating/lighting was controllable, the television and set-top box worked, the furniture was in reasonable condition, and the beds and bedding were very comfortable, which to us is very important; thank you.
