The cottage is exactly like it is in the photos, and T was such a welcoming and lovely host from the moment I booked until I left, going above and beyond with suggestions and help if I needed it, but when I was in the cottage I was left alone yet felt super comfortable reaching out at any time. It was the exact right balance of support and autonomy you would want from a host. The cottage is in a perfect location and I always felt safe, important when you’re traveling alone. It was a little cold so I didn’t get to use any of the beach items but I did check the inventory and there is so much to use. Tons of towels, you control your own heat and air: it was basically a perfect stay. I can’t wait to go back; not sure how it feels almost like home after 3 nights but so glad it does.
