The cottage is just as pictured except it’s not the entire cottage, it’s only half. The picture on the listing shows the whole cottage so is a little misleading. We were sharing the driveway with another car and could hear the other couple moving about (as I’m sure they could hear us).
It was very clean and tidy however wasn’t very warm or comfortable. The open fireplace isn’t for use and the small wood heater in the tv room didn’t generate much heat. There is a portable electric heater in the front sitting room but it also didn’t generate much heat. The bed was old so wasn’t very comfortable and the couch in the tv room barely fit both my partner and myself comfortably.
Joanne was quick to answer the phone when called and did walk us through the cottage over the phone but could have just as easily wrote the same instructions into a message so we could have accessed the lock box when we arrived rather than make a phone call (personal preference).
Overall our stay was okay however we would probably find somewhere warmer if we were to visit again in the winter months.
