However, I did ask for the sofa bed to be made up, but this didn’t happen and I ended up sharing the upstairs bed with my friend which wasn’t ideal ##### Susan L. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jack T. 28 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cosy and comfortable stay! We had a wonderful time in Low Bentham! The property owners were very accommodating, offering us great local recommendations for a pub lunch, and advising us on our travel and taxi needs. They also kindly offered to set up a sofa bed for our extra guest - sadly, this wasn't done but it was an easy fix and was hardly enough to ruin our stay! The cottage itself is utterly charming, thoughtfully decorated and maintained, with supreme attention-to-detail. The owners thought of everything and even left detailed instructions on how to operate the heating, and a lovely selection of teas, coffees, and syrups for us to enjoy. We highly recommend this cosy cottage retreat! ##### Jack T.
