“Wonderful stay on Mull”

Reviewed 5 Jun 2022

Cottage was very comfortable, great location overlooking the harbour and Petrea was very responsive to questions. If there are a couple of things that could be improved they would be having blackout curtains in the bedroom (it is light for so much of the night in Mull in late May) and making the instructions a little clearer around things like recycling. All in all, a lovely quiet place to stay and convenient for getting down into Tobermory for tours (Staffa Tours trip to Staff and Lunga was a highlight), restaurants (Mishnish and Cafe Fish recommended) and the fish and chip van on the quay.

Response from the owner Very sorry to read that you were cold during your stay. This is the last thing that we would have wanted, as the owner and manager of the cottage (Petrea). The heating is timed to come on for 8 hours during the day and evenings throughout the year but it won't come on if the temperature on the thermostat has already been reached unless there is an issue? We were ot aware of any issues and we don't always know in advance about problems arising unfortunately and if there is a problem we will try to resolve the issue. Its a shame that you felt cold when something so important could have been resolved at the time. We do also provide wood for the woodburner and the cottage should have been super cosy as is often reported in other reviews. In our instructions we also say that we do not provide towels or soap. We do provide antibacterial soap and hand gel. We took a decision to not provide towels as advised by other self catering providers due to the risk around the spread of Covid 19 and we were trying to minimise any further risks to our cleaners who have to handle and manage the laundry. We also explain this in the instructions. We ask that guests read instructions before leaving so that they are aware of such matters including follow our directions to the cottage, as we know there are 2 Breadalbane lanes and we try to flag this up. I sent you a map with instructions and I provided a bespoke sign at the end of the road at Breadalbane lane which I also sent a photo of with the instructions. We are glad that everything else was fine.

Response from the owner Sylvia. I spent many hours talking to you pre your booking and helping answer yiir questiins. I have given you so much of my time already. It's a self catering cottage...this is self explanatory regardibg toiletries etc. If you needed anything else you were more than capable of asking and you would have received. You asked for someone to help you with the TV on the 1st night of your stay in the evening. I said that this wasn't possible to ask my cleaner, as requested by you because my cleaner would have to leave her family which is unfair of you to expect. I knew the TV wasn't broken as you implied. I assumed that if you needed further assistance that you would let me know as this is what you agreed to do but you didn't, so I assumed the TV was tuned in. I explained to you how to use the tv ocer 2 lengthy phonecalls!! The TV was checked after you left and it was all working fine. We never heard another word after that and I was quite grateful as conversations were getting quite curt and your demands and expectations and neediness quite high.. We don't provide extra bedding and towels/ toiletires unless asked and feel we provide enough to get you started. I do have a gardner and am reliant on his availability as to when he can work on the garden. Very disappointed by your review and your expectations.
