We ask that people take their shoes off when they go in as we have new carpets. There is an instruction booklet on the table but incase you miss it... or previous guests have moved it The ensuite bathroom has a macerator in, this means that it can only take human waste and thin toilet tissue. Wipes and other things will block it up. Any blockages must be paid for. The heating is controlled by a wireless controller on the sideboard. It is set to a constant 16 degrees, but it can be easily adjusted by the up and down buttons and it heats up. Please only use the log fire in the lounge.
