Our host made us feel welcome by communicating efficiently before arrival. And after departure. Upon arrival we were shown the logisitcs of the house (eg. How 'things' work), and offered a handful of tips on local ammenities. Tips such as local parking arrangements, free walks/ activities, good food places and suitable walking tracks with a pram.
The accomodation was clean, comfortable and functional for a relaxing family holiday.
'Finishing touches' such as a books, cosy rugs and a few food items in the pantry were a point of difference when compared to some other houses. A strong sense of 'value for money' made us respect the property and enjoy our experience.
