Log Burning Stove

• To open the log burner use the wooden handles supplied. Always remove the wooden handle from the door or else there is chance of it setting on fire if it gets to hot.
• Load the burner with a firelighter and 5-6 sticks. Light these and let them get hot, before adding a log after 3-4 minutes.
• The air flow can be adjusted using the vent toggle on the top right corner of the burner. Place it to the right for additional air to heat the unit up, and to the left to dampen the fire down.
• There is a lever on bottom which you can use to alter the draw by how much air flows into the stove.
• If you are cold in the living room by the stairs we recommend lighting the log burner as this will heat the room more quickly and for longer than turning up the thermostat.

WARNING: The outside of the stove does become hot, please do not allow children to operate or play with the stove.

Heating

The heating in the property is set on a timer so it will only run at certain times of the day. There is a portable thermostat which remains in the kitchen that controls all of the house, except the sunroom. It has been set to ensure the house is warm enough for you from morning to evening.

Should you need a bit of extra heat use the buttons on the front above and below the thermometer to alter the temperature. The program button should remain on Auto.

There is underfloor heating in the Sun Room on a separate control to the rest of the house. This is where the dining table is and the control is on the wall. You can use the plus and minus buttons should you need to alter the temperature.

Please be aware that setting the temperature thermostat higher will not make the room heat up quicker!

**GAMES ROOM** The heating will come on in the games room whilst the house heating is on, if you require any further heat please use the heater in the games room, by flicking the switch and this will give you 1/2hrs heat.

If you are too hot or cold at any point during your stay please call us on 01748 850 333 between 8.30am and 5pm and we will assist you as soon as possible.

Please read the safety information before using. The hot tub will be cleaned out and filled with fresh water on the day of your arrival.  You do not need to empty the water during your stay, there is an anti-bacterial treatment for the water in the hot tub. Any damage to the tub must be reported immediately and will be your responsibility.

Passcode for the hot tub lid: 00

The hot tub is tested daily for health and safety compliance. It takes 5-10 minutes and the operative will not disturb your stay.

• The water is heated via an electric heater. This warms at around 1 degree per hour so the hot tub may not be able to be used on the first night. There is a thermometer on the control panel; the most desirable temperature for most people is around about 38C. A lot of factors play a role when heating the water, ambient temperature, weather conditions etc. Keep the lid on the hot tub when heating to conserve the heat.
• There are buttons to control lights and jets on the control panel on the front of the tub.
• The water is heated by circulating through the system via an inlet and outlet pipe within the hot tub. DO NOT let the water drop below its original level. If necessary, please use the hose pipe provided to top up the water level.

The lid: this folds back in two sections and requires two people. Undo the 2 clips on the front corners, fold the lid in half, then use the metal bar at the back of the tub to slide off the lid by placing a foot on each end of the bar and pressing down.
