Rachel was a wonderful host, helping us with a flat tire and a ride to the pub for dinner. She really came to our rescue! In the house there were fresh flowers, food for breakfast and a detailed guest information book. This is a beautiful home in great location and with a tremendous view. We did not have any children in our group but the house had several amenities to meet their needs. Although we knew of the water problem in advance the brown color is unattractive and bottled water for teeth brushing is a bit of a nuisance. We did not use the washing machine for fear that our clothes might be discolored. There are also different instructions for managing the hot water for the showers in the 2 bathrooms which we didn't get right the first morning so the shower was cold. Rachel is fantastic and the house is beautiful but I'd prefer a house with clean water and showers that operated just by turning the tap.
