I'm a little confused in the disparity between the other reviews and the experience we had. I rarely write a negative review as I try to find the positives in things but our overall experience and feeling during our stay was 'disappointed and mis-led'.
The location is great and worked really well for us. Generally I think 'shack' is the operative word rather than something to ascertain charm.
It's cosy enough and I think OK for a couple of days but we (family of four with two small kids - 4 & 1) stayed for a week and it became an issue.
The facilities are 'ok'. For example, we had just a handful of glasses in the kitchen, one tea towel, no proper knives etc which made cooking difficult.
The dishwasher is poor quality and dishes took a couple of washes to get clean.
The BBQ is rusted through and unusable which was disappointing.
It felt like more like a holiday home that you fill with all your old stuff rather than a property to be rented out.
The actual bathroom is really not representative of the photos. It's quite dirty, lots of black mould and cold due to it not being part of the actual house.
I also felt it was quite unsafe and I raised concerns with the host regarding the exposed electrical wiring and non-sealed lightbulbs next to the toilet - in a wet room.
Overall the bathroom was the biggest let down and something I've communicated to the hosts that needs addressing to bring it up to standard with the rest of the property.
It's one of those holidays when you're really happy to be home and have a greater appreciation for/realisation of how nice your own home is.
