8/10 Good
"Great location and good area with a supermarket nearby. The washing machine was handy. You have to make your own bed with linen which we were not aware of. When booking the photos were of the water facing property but we did not have this property and had the one on the back by the road. Parking was not obvious or clear and we had three cars parked where I think the parking spot for the property was. Check in was not great as the instructions given were to get into the water front cabin but as mentioned we were allocated the road side cabin. It wasn’t the easiest to find initially but after driving round we found it, better instructions would be helpful."
