First off, I want to say how lovely and nice breege and her daughter are. They were very friendly and came over when we were having trouble locking the doors, and also gave us very clear instructions on how to turn the heater off before bed. They seem like genuinely kind people. However, their kindness did not make up for the accommodation that we stayed in.
First, the pros. The bed was comfortable and very clean. They had a very cute dog and again, they seemed like very kind people. There was hot water, and they had a well equipped kitchen with all the things you may need.
The cons: the biggest thing for me were the spiders. I understand that it is a farmhouse but seeing large, live spiders hanging out around the house made me very uncomfortable. we were told we would be greeted upon check in and no one came for almost half an hour. This can be understandable, but I did tell them when I was 20 minutes away and specifically told they would be there to greet me. Additionally, this is not a seaside cottage. This is a farmhouse. The beach is supposed to be 5 or so minutes away and I wish I could have gone but didn’t get the chance to. From the pictures I thought it would be right on or next to the beach but it’s not.
If this home was less expensive it would have been fine! But this house was over 100 dollars a night and it was absolutely not worth the price. I was so exited to stay here because I pictured it being clean, cozy, and steps from the beach. But it wasn’t any of those things.
I truly am not trying to be nit picky and I have stayed in DUMPS before. And to be clear this is not and all around awful place to stay. There were definite perks. But the cons vastly outweigh the pros, and I want people to know what this house is really like before they spend the money on it. LOOK AT THE PICTURES. Stare at them and decide if you want to shower there, because I didn’t. For some people this may be lovely and perfect for them, but I was not expecting a farmhouse from the 50s and that’s what I got.
I should have looked at the pictures closer and trusted the people who said it was rustic, and that’s my fault.
I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because maybe they were just really busy that morning or had something come up. But going by the night I stayed there, I would not recommend it unless you are used to these kinds of things.
