### 4/10 Poor

#### Verified traveller

22 Aug 2024

Disliked: Room comfort

#### Disappointing 

This cottage is in a great location, close to Newcastle, Castlewellan, Tullymore, Murlough and more. However the mattresses need replaced and are very uncomfortable to sleep on. The hottub is a nice feature but for anyone unfamiliar with this type of hottub, you cannot regulate the heat, and once it gets warm enough to get into it quickly gets too hot to be enjoyable. It takes away from the experience having to get out multiple times to add cold water. Also, unfortunately the listing is not accurate, it does not have a pool table or table tennis, and very strangley Jo tried to defend the mistake, and it felt like I was being blamed for believing the listing! For this reason I would not stay here again. I tried to add photographs of the listing and the messages Jo sent me but the link isn't working.
