Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: It was in the perfect location for our needs, and the photographs don’t do the cottage justice. It’s a wonderfully cozy place with lots of sunlight coming in, and quite spacious. The owners were so lovely and very easy to communicate with as well.
Negative: Nothing of note.
Summary: Amazing. Will most definitely stay again.

Positive: Cosy cottage vibe. Old school furniture and warm, homely set up. Bathroom rather modern considering. Beautiful garden and great for stopping by on your way through. Hosts were able to fix spa pool however may need maintenance as temperature gauge seemed inaccurate.
Negative: Felt a little awkward, like we were a burden in a way! Host noted only just having changed bedding even though we arrived two hours after regular check in time.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Nice place in the backyard of a friendly couple. A bit dated, but comfy. Very spacious, and the hot tub is a nice bonus.
Negative: The fixed showerhead was too low for my husband, and the water pressure meant it took forever to get the shampoo out. I don't know why since the water pressure from the faucet seems fine though. Shame since it looked recently installed.
Summary: Charming big place

Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location good. Kaye was lovely and approachable. House was clean. Bed linen and towels fresh and clean. Kitchen small but decent. House is a little dated but quirky. Armchairs firm so good for reading but not so good for putting your feet up to watch tv.
Negative: Sadly the bathroom was disappointing, but Kaye acknowledged this. Its very dated and duct tape on tiles was a surprise. Kaye wants to upgrade and l think this is much needed. It was clean and shower was basic but fine so it served its purpose. Also more instructions in the paper list left out would be better. Things like where when to put rubbish/ upcycle and how to work heating.
Summary: Clean, good location, nice host but needs some updating.
