Such a beautiful and cozy place to stay with a wonderful host! While the room itself may look small, there is a very large and spacious back patio that is a private space specific for you with lots of seating and is beautifully decorated with different plants and hanging lights; and makes the whole place feel very spacious.
The cottage/house you stay in has a small entrance area with a coat closet, mini fridge, dishes/silverware, coffee pot, etc. on one side, and a seating area with a table on the other. Behind that is the bed, and the door to the bathroom that has a toilet, sink and standing shower. The room was very well cleaned and stocked with everything we could need for our long stay, including a generous amount of food and refreshments, and extra towels and blankets neatly stored in places accessible to us. It never felt cramped, there was the perfect amount of room for two people and their luggage to sleep, get ready for the day, and relax in there. And I promise you’ll probably be spending most of the time feet up on the patio enjoying the view anyways.
I can’t get over how beautiful the home and all of the decorations/landscaping outside is. There was clearly so much time and care put into each part of it and makes the whole place feel magical.
The host lives on site/is never far away and was always super great with communication and getting us anything we needed, while also being super respectful of our privacy and never entered our space or bothered/interrupted our stay in any way.
Additionally, before even making our booking and due to some issues on my end, I asked to see if they would be willing to hold this location for the weekend before I could even put in my reservation because I was worried it would get booked before I would be able to pay. They were incredibly helpful, responded almost immediately, and had no issue with this request even though there was no real guarantee that I would follow through; but knew them doing this meant the world to me! Now, I can’t guarantee that they will be able to do this for everyone, but I think it speaks volumes for how caring and considerate of a host this is who goes out of their way to make sure you have a great stay.
