The property is beautiful and communication with the host was easy. The cleanliness of the cottage was a little disappointing after so many excellent reviews saying otherwise. High traffic areas are obviously cleaned well, but anything out of the way at all (under beds, windowsills, inside of washing machine, etc) were quite dirty. The cottage does not have AC, which was uncomfortable, but only on the first day of our stay before it cooled off. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The cottage worked well as a base for day trips.
