Such a cosy cabin to stay in - very comfortable bed, fast wifi. Buttercup the pig was super sweet, and the hosts were really friendly and had great suggestions.

Quaint french shabby chic style.Beautifull views. Cosy.

The outside deck was needing repair as some boards broken and rotten was a safety aspect really.

"Wasted money"

3.0

Maybe if the tree is removed a nice view could be seen

Front door, still not fixed after previous feedback doesn’t close. Entrance to very small cottage when walking in past main house unkempt not appealing. Minimal room for luggage, no place to be able to sit for any meals. Some tea and coffee no sugar or salt/pepper satchets to use, no plug to wash up cups and small plates. Used sponge left on the sink ?? For next guests. Not great for 2 people as one needs to climber over the other to get into and out of the bed pushed into the corner 😟. If soap is to be left out needs to be in a wrapper not left in a soap dish, ?? If this had been previously used by others 😖. Main road very load. Deck into cottage needs repairs.

"Quaint and lots of potential."

7.0

Lovely outdoor bath setting on a lovely still night over looking the valley.

French doors need attention as we were not able to shut fully even pulling both together as advised. No second chair inside to sit on. Outside deck is a little slippy.

"Lovely quaint wee cottage with a view"

9.0

Rural setting in a city. It was quiet even though close to a busy road. The location was perfect for my model Boat race venue at Tauriko. Friendly animals.

It was a very brief 1 night stay after a long drive. Will be longer next year if available.
