We were very pleased with our cottage. It's very cute, generally well equipped, and in a great location. We loved being so close to Rathtrevor Beach. The resort grounds are beautifully kept, and we felt very safe there. We were pleased to have a back deck and barbeque, as we ate all our meals outside. The kitchen is very well equipped, and we appreciated the laundry facilities. There were only a few drawbacks:
- It doesn't really accommodate 8 people as advertised. Perhaps if several of the people are children, it would be fine, but if you're all adults, it doesn't work well. We were 4 women who all wanted our own beds. However, we discovered the pullout sofa in the loft is unsleepable because of the bars across your back and the saggy mattress. This really needs to be replaced. The bed in the second bedroom is only a double, so it's not big enough for 2 adults. In addition, there were only enough sheets for 3 beds, not 4.
- Could I recommend putting a few mirrors in various rooms? The only mirror was in the bathroom, which was a challenge for 4 women!
- Perhaps the owners could consider putting in A/C. We were fine while the weather was pleasant, but the last couple of days started to heat up, and it was difficult to sleep at night.
Overall, we had a very nice stay at the cottage, and I'd certainly stay again, although not with 4 adults. Thanks, Dahlia, for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage!
