Was a spacious place with more than enough room. Kitchen had all we needed and bathroom updated and clean. But the furnishings (sofa and chairs) were old and fixed with patches. Outdoor area featured on the website had rusted chairs and was not clean. I think places do their best, but a little investment here would be good. And don't feature a space in your photos which is not really useable and present it as a plus for the property ...

This property was in such a beautiful setting! It felt like a bit of a jungle oasis even though it was so walkable to the town; and the little patio was perfect to sit on and listen to the birds while having our morning tea/coffee. Staff were helpful and friendly, the beds were comfortable, and everything was clean and well laid out. We’d recommend this property!

Cute cottages, but you are on top of your neigbor

The cottages are very comfortable and clean, but are tightly packed on the lot, so you are right on top of the next one and my have a very obstructed view. The noise insulation is also not perfect, so you may hear your neighbor. The service is great and they are kept very clean.
