Goult is just as described - charming and not too touristy with some good restaurants The house is spacious and well located with parking nearby. It was renovated 20 years ago and is now in need of a re-do. We are collectors ourselves but the mish mash of second hand "finds" verges on clutter. Kitchen filled with lots of "things" but short on necessities like a good set of pots and pans. Drawers and cupboards a mess. Metal door from kitchen to patio often impossible to open so we could only access patio via the second floor bedroom outside stairs. Patio area unkempt looking. Same for the top floor bedroom/study. Bed linens/pillows shabby and the portable metal rack for hangers and open shelves for towels and sheets does not make for an attractive/pleasant master suite. A newer sofa in the room almost looks out of place alongside all the other dilapidated furniture. The second floor bedrooms are in better condition. Some re-organization and attention to detail could improve all of this. .As for the premier host - after no response to emails inquiring about check in, we called to give an estimated arrival of 4-5PM It was agreed that we call on arrival day once we collected our rental car. We did call twice and left a message, arriving just before 5 PM with no one there. More calls and Christian eventually answered saying the cleaner was supposed to meet us but he would contact her regarding whereabouts of the keys. A few minutes later another call telling us the keys were behind some shutters near the front door! We inquired about instructions for the house - appliances, heating, what to do about garbage, checkout procedure,.etc. and were told "nobody asks about instructions". Turns out garbage is taken down the street, the heating thermostat was on a wall behind a mirror and so on. We were 2 people staying in a house that can accommodate 8 and were also leaving a day earlier than we'd paid for but were told there would be an extra charge if we turned the thermostat above 20 (fine but heat is listed on web page). Christian photographed the meter to monitor this, apparently not factoring in the lower use of hot water, lights, dishwasher, washing machine as well as sheets and towels for 2 vs 8 people..Oddly, the heat for the plunge pool was on all week (not by us). After picture taking of the heat meter we never saw him again. He was busy as a guide for a local tour group. There are better options out there if you look!
