More on the small lounge

• The french windows and terrace area are new (February 2013) and make this room the lightest in the cottage.
• The orange sofa makes up into a comfortable bed; bedding is in the chest. The stairs can be curtained off to give reasonable, but not complete, privacy.
• The new (November 2010) cupboards under the stairs provide some hanging space.
• There is a tool box in the second of the new cupboards. Use with care.
• CHECK OUT THE NEWSFLASH ABOUT THE COMPUTER &c.
• Power fluctuations sometimes cause the internet to go down; restoring it is usually easy, but please contact one of the Fletchers before attempting this. It is being particularly temperamental at present (February 2013)
• There are instructions &c. for gadgets and spare light bulbs &c. in the bureau.
• Feel free to use the telephone; there is an honesty box adjacent.
• The inglenook and the small wood-burning stove are newly installed (February 2013) but not yet fully commissioned as some adjustment to the chimney is required to make it work properly.
