The cottage is an attractive, lovely place to stay, well appointed and very comfortable, and couldn’t be in a better location. It’s very clean, with good facilities such as reverse cycle a/c, and wood heating, and a laundry with washer and dryer.
My one reservation, though it didn’t affect us, is that the house rules (contained in a long rather legalistic text) contain a plethora of punitive financial penalties for everything from failing to put the bin out to leaving any dishes in the dishwasher. Worse, you agree for the booking service to help themselves to your credit card for these penalties or any damages, with no stated right of dispute or recourse. This kind of “heads we win, tails you lose” attitude is something I haven’t seen before in my very many Airbnb bookings, and I do see as a little heavy handed and unnecessary.
That said, my dealings with Langleys were pleasant and efficient - but I much prefer the friendly note on the fridge to hidden clauses in dense house rules.
