Jan 10, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Cleanliness #### Need to sack the cleaner The cottage lounge, kitchen and bedroom at first glance was beautiful. That was until we found all the dirty dishes. Amazing exposed beams, but full of cobwebs. The bed looked comfy, but the bedding didn’t fit. Lovely furnishings, but with daddy long legs everywhere. Nice court yard, but with the previous occupants Red wine spilt all over the table. Property was really close to shops and the beach which was fantastic. Overall could have been beautiful, if it was clean. ##### kellie g. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mel M.
