double booked
I love the way you all look but no one replies, I am at my wits end, and worse still our house keeper is away this weekend, so have some more help but they have never been in the house before.

It is for the whole house we set at 20, then they also have them on the rads in each room too, but never turn them down, just open a door or window. and at £675 for 17 guests in 8 bedrooms, for a three night break, courtesy of sykes cottages, miss management on pricing. but we are out of them from e...
