Thimble cottage, 7 night stay.
Pleasant cottage overlooking the tidal mill pond at Emsworth, frontage faces setting sun.
Kitchen appliances and utensils excellent.
Bathroom shower a bit Heath-Robinson, could be.improved.
Garden path up to parking space needs cutting back to avoid the thorns.
Emsworth is ideal venue for hostelries and restaurants- plenty of choice for both. Enjoyable stay.

The Mill Pond
Excellent location , property had all that we expected and then more. There were only one or two niggles which we got over, but instructions on how to use the microwave and oven would have helped. When we arrived we noticed that the dustbin was absolutely full with no indication about waste collection days or where we were supposed to leave the bin.
