Pluses: Andy and Kal’s little place had everything we needed and was scrupulously clean. Comfortable bed, and a fairly short walk to the main street.
Not so great: We booked it because it said it was a serene and private accommodation on the property of the hosts. Unfortunately though, we were unaware from the listing that they were renting out their house to other guests over the duration of our stay whilst they were on holiday. We found out the day before our stay.
Our stay for the first half of the week was not ‘serene’ as advertised and not ‘private’ either as the backyard we were in the corner of, next to the house, was almost constantly used by some of the family staying. There was no screening which would have helped give a sense of seperateness. So we ended up inside with the blinds shut on lovely afternoons/ evenings to screen the kids and their dad wandering past or glancing in at us from the yard. This totally changed what we did with our evenings and how we felt about our ‘holiday’ as we just didn’t want to be there. We chose this property above all others 9 months prior to our arrival, and would not have risked it if we had known the main house would be rented to unknown guests during our stay. The host rang to apologise and was very sorry for what we had been through.
