"Very Good"

7.0

Amazing location to see stars at night and walk into town. The view from the driveway is stunning! It is a bit outdated inside but works perfectly for a few days getaway, the bed was super comfy as well.

Bathroom door needs changing but very small issue really.

"Great location and with a bit more care and attention could be made into a lovely place"

4.0

Location was excellent, host was friendly , if we could have found host after first arriving,I am sure they would have addressed our slight niggles Cottage was warm apart from bathroom which was freezing Comfortable and clean beds

Cottage was not very clean apart from bedding which we couldn’t fault . Cobwebs , lots of thick dust and duct tape around windows . Blinds could really do with a good clean . We paid for 3 guests but were only supplied with 2 plates , very limited tableware and cutlery. Not an easy place to be able to cook a meal , we were expecting a better equiped kitchen as it stated a fully equipped kitchenette Whole vibe of cottage was that it appears to be run down

"Disappointing"

4.0

Plenty of heaters, electric blankets, comfortable bed and great shower.

Very old cottage, no insulation, little sun, on the lake shore but no view as hidden by a house in front, too many steps up and down inside due to different floor levels, no storage space for clothes etc

"Enjoyed location, not good enough amenities in house."

5.0

location, views.

Should provide cooking oil, herbs and make cooking facilities more visible. At this price needs to upgrade amenity provision. Especially given small bathroom, limited kitchen.

"As we only stayed the one night, it was passable."

5.0

Great location, friendly hosts. Bery cute knickknacks!

Maybe a bit more in the kitchen ie utensils. Would have been nice to have an spatula to flip my egg. Pan was a bit wobbly too, so only heat in the centre where the plate got in contact. Would have been nice to know it will be an induction stove before hand. My filter coffee pot didn't work on that. We only had 2 plates ( 3 guests) Nathroom floor looked dirty.
