We had a lovely relaxing time-the property was as described and in a fantastic location. The information given regarding local businesses and attractions was helpful. Would highly recommend this place to stay.
Overall pretty good. But needs a welcome booklet and ditect contact number for when issues arise like the stove not working.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Check in process way too hard
It took us 9 emails and 3 phone calls over a couple of weeks to satisfy the firm managing the house. Our Vrbo rating is extensive and excellent-they need to streamline their requirements.
