The Dairy, Emsworth - eine umgebaute Scheune für 4 Gäste in 2 Schlafzimmern

This cottage had everything we could possibly need and we were very happy to stay. It has excellent amenities and though its location is rural, distances to plenty of places to visit are small. This area is a cycling paradise and we really enjoyed transporting our bikes to the varied routes in the area of Portsmouth and Chichester etc. Our bikes were very safe in the garden of the cottage due to the gated community. There is so much more I would like to do in this area... Another time. The host was extremely attentive when we had a boiler breakdown and it was repaired before we returned from our afternoon out.

Whilst the cottage was lovely, there are a couple of things I would like to point out. One of the beds had a spider's nest under the bedspread which hatched fortunately before my son and daughter in law went to bed, with numerous baby spiders crawling all over it. We contacted the owner for a hoover (which they had borrowed from the cottage) to clean them up, but on reflection feel that it should have been offered to remake the bed with clean bedding. The kitchen cupboards inside could have done with a clean, I actually spent the first evening giving them a wipe out (perhaps I am too fussy!) and a few more mugs would have been useful to save keep having to wash them and being unable to pop them in the dishwasher. Sorry, I do not wish to be over critcal because on the whole the cottage was lovely and Alison quickly sorted the kettle that had a leak. Just addressing the couple of things above would have made it even better!
