Response from the manager Thank you for your review . I am really pleased you enjoyed your stay . The water in the Windmill is set to constant all day , it has been set at 58 degrees , when six people are using the shower /bath one after the other the water will have to reheat so sometimes when the bath is used the water will not come out as hot as when the first person had used it . I had filled the bath in the week and cleaned all the jets and it was running clear . There is no rule book there is instruction /guidance to help our guest on departure. We follow what other holiday lets/companies expect, that the property is left clean and tidy and all rubbish removed . Our check out time on a Friday and Monday like all other holiday lets / companies is 10.00am , this gives us time to change it around for our next guest . The hot tub as in our T&C is an added extra and sometime its beyond our control if the hot tub becomes faulty or out of use . We tried our best to rectify the problem straight away after we received our guest phone call and had someone attend it and reset it. I have running this business now for many years and we have had no other complaints about towels etc . We leave one extra large bath sheet, and a hand towel for every guest , this is enough for a short weekend break . The washing machine was out of order as we were waiting for the PAT test to make sure it was safe for our guest to use.This is compliant with our insurance . I am really sorry about the bottle of wine this was missed of the table in error , i would have arranged for a bottle to have been delivered if i had known before our guest departing. Again i am pleased you enjoyed your stay and giving me 4 bubbles Sandie
