Close to WWT Martin Mere. Great for birdwatchers!!

This small, clean and comfortable little cottage was perfect for what we wanted. We planned to visit Martin Mere - which was about 8 mins drive from the property. Tea & coffee was available but we would have appreciated a little drop of milk so we could make a drink on arrival (would have been happy with UHT milk pots!)I thought I had messaged the owner, via Vrbo with an arrival time, but he was not expecting us when we did get there, though there was no problem getting in. I did think that Vrbo's methods of messaging the owners was not as clear as other accommodation websites. We would have also liked some local information about shops, where to eat etc.
