Response from the owner Thanks for a kind and helpful review. We are so sorry about the inadequate kitchen equipment - it was because of the hail storm that two gites equipment got muddled and lack of time during the changeover meant it was not checked. The moral is: always tell us if something is not right so we can correct any errors.
