The location is great and Kathleen is a supportive and responsive host. The home itself has been a little neglected and needs some updates, especially the flooring. There were some issues with insects and even birds in the house. The property is shared with two other cottages, so is not entirely private. Overall, we enjoyed the stay but would advise future guests with sensitivities to the above mentioned issues to check with host about possible future treatments to improve property condition. If, on the other hand, you just want the water and mansion view, and have plenty of expendable income, this place could cup of tea.
