Sep 26, 2025 #### Beautiful views and cozy home We really enjoyed our stay and found the house to have everything we need. Comfy beds, well equipped kitchen etc. The view from the main bedroom and balcony is stunning. We couldn’t get the downstairs shower to work unfortunately and although the sofas look great they are actually tiny and very uncomfortable to chill out on. But it is a stunning property in a beautiful location. ##### Cheryl F.

Once we were there, I started noticing bugs creeping in through the cracks of the floor trimming. This happened every night. There were dead bugs scattered throughout the carpet in the house. Also, my friend was trying to wash his clothes in the washer/dryer and the washer had mildew and mold growing in the soap tray. It also did not dry his clothes after 3+ hours of being on the dry cycle. Everything else seemed to be clean including the bed sheets, dishes, towels, etc. The scenery behind the house is gorgeous. This house is also ideal for four people or less.

However, there were a few things that could be improved upon. The cottage generally was quite sparse with only the bare necessities left for us. I would recommend you provide the following to make guests' stays more enjoyable: - oil for cooking - coffee maker / cafetiere - cheese grater - more than 2 rolls of toilet paper - soap / shampoo / bubble bath/salts - ice tray
