Response from the owner Dear Tom and lynda , Many thanks for your review which after 3 stays at our cottage is a little harsh . We do not own the cat or can not stop it coming on to our property sadly . We came across every morning to clean up any mess left by the cat . The dog which we do not own is neither flea bitten or scratching . We can not control what guests do with the local pets in the village we do ask all guests not to feed our neighbors pets but sadly not all all guests listen . We did not make you clean up any mess left by cats or dogs . We did take you both to town free of charge many a times after you did not want to hire a a car and helped you in anyway possible . We are very sorry you both felt your holiday was disappointing . Ian and Mags
