    “It was a nice break (storm Dave so weather not great, everything in the lodge was functional, I had to fix the w Roller blinds in the bedroom (no Biggie), it would benefit from some fimer touches, like for instance a shower mat to stand on instead of having to use a hand towel but overall pretty good.”

    Roof rattled quite a lot due to the wind, the electrics tripped once due to to many appliances on at once IE heater, kettle, very helpful the owner's came to reset it straight away. The bin is at the beginning of the drive around ½ a mile down the road (don't walk unless you want to get the steps in
