The host was welcoming and we had a nice stay but deck and chairs need attention
6 / 10Average·Mar 2026
The location was wonderful and it was great to have a pet friendly option. The overall experience would have been better with some small tweeks. The house needs a good clean, especially cornices and window jambs as there was dirt and cobwebs and dust. Whisjt the kitchen was well stocked there were no sharp knives and no dishwashing liquid which we had to buy along with toilet deodoriser. A little more attention to these things would make the property more presentable and appealing. Overall vibe was great and it had so much more potential!
