Clean cottage walking distance to town

This property did not disappoint. Walking distance to the main street with shopping and restaurants, yet quiet location and clean surroundings. The furnishings were simple yet interesting, with white walls and natural wood floors. Adequate kitchen and private outdoor space. I would stay again in a heartbeat.

A few touches could improve things. Crank handle on a window, a broom that we furnished, cleaning rain gutters. Overall the unit and location are very good. Host could have been more helpful with WiFi and tv.
