Response from the owner 3 stars seems harsh considering all the good points. It is difficult to cater for someone with asthma especially when you don’t know. But fair enough there was dust on top of the wardrobe, which has been removed. The small amount of dust on other surfaces was continuously occurring due to the hot dry conditions and the windows open. But I am sorry Tim suffered an asthma attack but having asthmatics in my family it is very difficult to determine the cause. We have many returning guests and have had many praising reviews. We also have the cottage left in various conditions of cleanliness but take it on the chin as we did this time. I will leave it to other readers to determine the balance between this one and the others.
