Sadly however, tepid hot water all during our stay until we discovered on the last morning that the thermostat on the combi boiler has been turned right down! Suggest that a collection of 'normal' coffee/tea mugs be provided (we were worried about using the 'collectables'). Suggest also a set of 3 saucepans with lids for the stove. However that said, an amazing property situated in a beautiful small town. The chapel was very well appointed, clean and inviting. ##### Richard B.
