Oct 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Lovely cottage, but little things matter This is a charming mid rock cottage. We enjoyed our stay but little things matter. There was no soap in bathroom hand basin dispenser, none of the food/drinks that appear in photos of listing are provided and there were a LOT of blow flies in the house. I contacted the owner to let him know about this but did not receive a response. ##### Susan P.
