Lovely but needs some TLC

Very cosy in a quiet location but needs some work done around the place. Very limited ability to cook, only 1 fork and other small issues like air conditioning and hair dryer need replacing. Bed was comfortable.

Smokey room swapped to another.

The cottage was lovely but unfortunately, previous guests had smoked inside leaving the place reeking of cigarette smells. Our host was most attentive and moved us to another equally lovely cottage - without the smell of stale cigarette smoke. While lovely, the cottage would benefit from a freshen-up.

Very dated

The property had charm but it’s very dated and quite dark. Sadly this meant we didn’t want to spend more time here than we had to. A lick of paint and some new soft furnishings would help.

Extremely Disappointed.

The property is too old & very tired. Needs lots of upgrades. Outside was dirty & unkept, rubbish bins overfilling thru out whole stay. There were mice in side. No coffee, or breakfast foods. . Unusual especially when you fly in late on a Sunday. People usually leave milk, bread, cereal & eggs etc. Two burners didn’t work, hair dryer didn’t work, some lights didn’t work. Was definitely too expensive for what it was. Although we appreciated you changing our bookings as we had to cancel Xmas because of QLD Jesper cyclone. Only positive thing was the bed was very comfortable. Otherwise extremely disappointed.
