My partner and I stayed here for a couple of days as our wedding was in the area. I advised the host it was our wedding before our stay was accepted, and let her know there would be other people present the day of the wedding while we got ready.
After the wedding I told a friend she could park her car and roof tent on the host’s property in a small parking area on the side of the driveway away from the house. This was not pre-planned and was an honest error in my judgement.
The host then woke us up the morning after our wedding by banging on the door aggressively and yelling at me about how we were deliberately flouting the rules, taking us completely by surprise. She was obviously very angry and didn’t hold back. I apologized profusely but continued to be yelled at. She made me cry which is not a particularly nice way to wake up the day after your wedding!
I followed up this interaction with a message apologising further and assuring her that it was not our intention and merely an oversight on our part in the early hours after the wedding, when accepting a sober ride back to the unit from our friend. Then shortly thereafter received a message asking us to move two plastic chairs back inside the house from where we had temporarily placed them on an outdoor deck, making us feel like we were being surveilled.
Definitely put a sour note on what should have been a happy occasion. We were nothing but polite, clean and tidy guests with clear communication regarding the purpose of our stay, and feel as though we were shown no decency or privacy during our time at the unit. Instead of surprising us early the morning after our wedding, things could have been discussed in a more orderly manner and resolved without the nastiness. Do not recommend staying here. The house itself was fine, the views are lovely, but the whole experience was ruined by the hosts insolence.
