By car - drive slowly up behind the gates and they will open when you get to the sensor.

  • The cutlery is in a slim drawer above the cups.

  • The Velux windows and blinds can be opened and closed using the controller on the wall by the kitchen - the windows open VERY slowly and will also close automatically if it rains.

  • Please see the notes about the underfloor heating and hot water.

  • Rubbish - general waste and recycling goes in the two blue bins next to the old shed. Bottles and glass go in the black box.

​​Underfloor heating in 1 and 2 The Stables

The property has a high level of insulation and low energy requirements and uses a heat store for the hot water and underfloor heating. There are three zones, each with a thermostat like the one in the picture below.


Underfloor heating needs lower temperatures than normal heating to feel comfortable, so rather than 21°C that you might choose for radiators, you would need perhaps 18°C.


The floor acts as a huge storage heater that takes time to warm up and cool down, so if you change the setting we recommend going up or down only one or two degrees at a time and then waiting... otherwise you will first be too hot, then too cold, then too hot…


On the thermostat display -

  • The 'AUTO' symbol on the top means the heating is following the set program - we recommend using Auto.

  • The large number is the current room temperature and the smaller one is the temperature the thermostat is aiming for.

  • A 'wave' symbol shows the heating is on, when the set temperature has been reached it disappears.

  • (The WiFi icon shows the thermostat is wirelessly linked to the heating system.)

On the right of the display are 5 buttons -

  • Use the up and down buttons to turn the heat up or down - the set temperature will change and  'AUTO'  will change to 'MANUAL'. The room temperature will VERY SLOWLY change to your setting.

  • the button below the clock button sets the thermostat to 'AUTO'.

  • the power button at the bottom turns the thermostat off and on - please leave it turned on.

  • the clock button allows the time of day to be set - there should be no need to touch this.

The hot water is heated automatically and there is nothing to adjust.

Pease note - if you increase the room temperature the stored hot water is sent to the floor and you may find the water in the taps is cool for a while. It will reheat in an hour or so. If you are uncertain select 'Auto' and wait…


Before you leave please check that the thermostats are On and set to 'AUTO' - thank you!

To leave on foot press the grey button on the right hand wall - it opens one gate.

By car - drive slowly up behind the gates and they will open when you get to the sensor.


Rubbish - general waste and recycling goes in the black and blue bins next to the cottage. Bottles and glass go in the black box.


Heating - the temperature is controlled by a Nest Thermostat that follows a preset program, but if you wish to change the temperature just turn the silver dial to suit. (The central heating and hot water are run by a gas boiler in the back kitchen, it should not need to be touched, but if the pressure is below 1 on the dial please let us know.)
