Place and the parking space. Breakfast had sufficient. It had plenty of towels and cold water bottles, plus shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Plenty of places to eat nearby.
There was no kitchen roll, no toiilet brush, no cooking stove (in the description), no mop and it did smell damp.

Because they had no cooking facilities, there was an air fryer. This was really useful, in fact more useful than an oven. We also very much appreciated the washing machine and dryer. It’s rare to find a dryer.
As the nearest supermarket is a little way from the house, the hosts provide Breakfast cereal and bread and jam. Everything you would want.
The flat was very spacious and well laid out.
We hadn’t realised there were so many steps up to the front door. There were photos of the front but it didn’t register until we got there.
Only difficult for us as we have a few mobility problems. However, it wouldn’t stop us staying there again.

The beds were super comfy, with a lovely warm duvet that didn't pin you to the bed. Good blackout curtains in my room. Own front door to the apartment. Lovely seaside scheme inside. Very clean, soft towels and toiletries in the bathroom. The two bedrooms are diagonally opposite on either side of the hallway, which was good for undisturbed sleep. Choice of bath and separate shower. The breakfast food, tea, coffee and fresh milk were appreciated. As were the selection of games. It was situated in a very quiet location :-)
The steps up to the front door, but I knew they were there and braced myself, (had seen them in the photos). My daughter didn't like the spider, but we put it out the front door. Also forgot to tell my daughter to only bring microwave evening meal as only a kitchenette.

Although the location was VERY out of the way (lots of winding country roads, often having to pull aside to let tractors by and such), the village of Cheselbourne was very idyllic and picturesque. The accommodation was quaint and cute and it was nice to have essentially your own apartment. Was happy to see there was Crunchy Nut (my favourite) in the cupboard for breakfast, and some orange juice, milk, and a small assortment of breads and jams in the fridge. The bed was massive for a double and the bedding was lovely and soft, it's clear the hosts went out of their way to make the place feel as homely as possible. The bathroom was big and had two entrances, good amount of soft towels and toiletries.
My main gripe (and basically the only one) was that there was no way to control the heating. At night I found the radiators were kicking out a low level of heat, enough to keep a room vaguely warm, but throughout the day it was completely off and I ended up catching a cold by midday after my first night there. The hosts asked me to message them if ever I needed anything or had any questions, and honestly, they were lovely and helpful and receptive from the beginning, but when I asked about the heating I got no reply. I was lucky that I was able to go to my partner's house in Weymouth to warm up because it was so cold in the apartment. I understand that there's a cost of living crisis going on and heating is very expensive, and again, the hosts were perfectly hospitable whenever I spoke to them so I don't at all feel good writing this, but it just felt dreadful sitting in the living room of the accommodation having to wear my coat and wrap a duvet around me to keep even some semblance of warm. I understand that there was the option to ring them, but as I'm autistic I find phone calls quite unnerving, and hoped that messaging would have been enough to warrant a response, as had been the case previously.
