Kitchen had everything that needed for a welcome stay (utensils, crockery and basic essentials) - the hosts have also gone the extra mile providing other simple staples as herbs, spices. We had an enjoyable stay, and surprisingly the house cooled quickly when opening windows once temperature equalised. We were very happy and blessed to stay (4 adults & 4 Children) at a well presented and welcoming house.

First time staying somewhere, where I can't find any faults. We travelled with a 2yo toddler who is very active. Their safety was thought of throughout and child friendly equipment and toys available inside and outside. Perfect for exploring.

Great house, great communication with host. The house is advertised to sleep more people than it can in beds, inflatable mattress was comfortable though. Cupboards were quite full which meant we couldn’t actually unpack our suitcases and there was no dryer to dry clothes.

Hi Jodie, I'm sorry if the descriptions wasn't clear in regard to the air mattress. We have tried to be as open and clear as possible in the description. For example, the photos and rooms details in the listing only show the beds and crib, and the air mattress is written in the description. If you have a suggestion for making this more clear, please let us know! All the best, Simon
