Neat and cozy

A neat & cozy small property suited for a short stay. The bathroom, bedrooms, kitchen and main living area are small but functional and have all you need for a holiday break. The only complaint I have is that my partner and I found the main bed to be incredibly uncomfortable. I slept on the couch for a few nights of our stay!

Cute house, needs work

Cute house, however there were a few issues, the lounge was covered in dog hair, not just a little bit it was completely covered it didn’t look like it had even been attempted to be cleaned, the 2 throws and cushions were also covered in dog hair. It also just smelt strongly of dog. House over all needed a really good clean. Should also state if it has a porta cot and high chair if the house is family friendly. I did also message twice to ask with no response. Bed and pillow’s uncomfortable and linen didn’t feel fresh.

Good little shack

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was small, maybe smaller than we thought. Was a good place to stay for a few days but don't think it's suitable for much longer. Could really do with a good clean around the house
