    Following xTGE's video guide here on TA, and to consider mine as an add-on, I rearranged the collectables a bit in order of appearance on the Croft Manor Map (press cn_back).

    This should speed up the search process in case you see "Located in the Croft Manor" when searching for a missing item.

    I was personally stuck missing 1 relic and 1 document, which seemed to be located in Amelia's room where the paintings are and I didn't take the ladder up...
