Lovely stay

The cottage was clean and comfortable and the location for us was perfect. This property is on 3 floors and now understand why there is a lack of photos for this property, but location and price was key for us. This property is better suited for younger travelers and not people who are not used to stairs or in their 60s and 80s. Communication with the host was excellent and answered messages promptly and great willingness to help with anything else.
