The house was spotless and Della, who looks after it, was most helpful. However the items below didn't make us feel welcome and the owner needs to completely rethink their approach.
- Being told that we had to supply a personal email address so that we could be sent a 20 page book of rules / instructions in advance.
- Being told in that book of rules that a 50 euro fine would be levied (in addition to the actual cost) if we accidentally broke something.
- Also being told that nobody other than 'registered guests' could access the house.
- Being told (for a reasonably pricy rental) that we must turn the hot water off every time we used it (which would have meant that we would have to wait 30 minutes for hot water when we returned to the house).
- Being left notices not to use things (like the kitchen door to the sun patio), rather than those things being fixed.
