Pretty much everything!

Cold water on the last day - so very quick shower!
Response from Slack Cottage:
Hi Bernie and Melody, Thanks for your kind comments, we really enjoyed meeting you both. Sorry to hear about the hot water problem while we were away. The solution was easily managed if the Staff had realised, even so, our sincere apologies for that. Tuscany was wonderful and no doubt we shall be going back again. Kindest regards, Liz & Chris

"We recommend this cottage to anyone."
We stayed at Slack cottage for 5 days to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Chris and Liz were very friendly and accomodating and made us feel incredibly welcome. The view from our room was amazing and the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The cottage is right on the banks of Windermere and the walks around it are lovely...especially after the wonderful breakfast provided! Read less
