Outside light not working and it's really needed on the dark nights, assume just needs a new bulb! Blind in main bathroom needs replacing as slats damaged. When we first arrived small black hairs everywhere even the beds! Needs a more thorough clean between guests! Patio door out to the decking needs adjusting as hard to close. We also pushed the downpipe back on as it had dropped allowing water to flow from the guttering! Overall though had a lovely stay, location is lovely and peaceful just need these few niggles resolved!
