Absolutely adorable! The only draw back was the stairs. I suggest don’t bring a lot of stuff because you are hauling it up & down the stairs to the house.

The cottage is in a great location, check in and parking is easy. The listing said it had a laundry (washer/dryer) it does not. The host was great and organized a pick-up and drop-off for laundry service to make up for the lack of onsite laundry, they were very professional and easy to communicate with. The kitchen is a little unorganized but has everything you need. The house was not as clean as we would have liked. Overall a great stay.
