The Perfect Home Away From Home
Vrbo was the only week link, failing to take payment in the first 2 attempts, followed by complete lack of communication regarding access procedures for the property, despite my having asked repeatedly online and via email. Eventually this was resolved on the day by contacting cottages.com instead
Otherwise, the property was truly excellent and our host utterly charming and accommodating
