There were a couple of things that would have been good to know up-front, like that a small child lives in the house and they share the yard with the cottage. The cottage itself is very warm, and there isn't a fan. It can get toasty in there! There were no other issues to speak of though, it is well decorated, small but charming and very clean/tidy.
When we arrived the child was sleeping in the backyard in a stroller, so we all had to whisper as we walked back to put down our things. When we arrived in the evening the family and especially the small child could be heard easily shouting, crying and chatting in their kitchen, which luckily we didn't mind and even found funny at times but it's good to know ahead of time you may deal with that. Other neighbors live on the other side of the cottage and everything they do can be heard (movies, parties, drinking, etc.) through the walls and windows on that side.
