Reviews on cleanliness are mixed, with some guests satisfied, while others reported dust and a lack of thorough cleaning. The hosts' response to cleanliness issues seems to vary.
There is not enough information in the reviews to accurately assess the location. No specific comments about the location's convenience or attractiveness were provided.
Comfort has been a point of contention, with the main bedroom's creaky bed being a recurring issue. However, the twin beds received positive remarks, and efforts to replace the double bed have been noted.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and modern amenities. Minor suggestions for improvement include additional cooking utensils and bedroom bins.
The hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, providing welcome gifts and items for children. However, it should be noted that such gestures are at the hosts' discretion and may not be guaranteed.

The cottage was light, clean, warm and comfortable and provided all that we needed. A very practical cottage for our holiday with our pet. Itâs in a quiet area but in walking distance of shop etc and you can park next to the cottage. Comfy bed, powerful shower and modern kitchen. We are looking forward to visiting again soon.

A 3 night stay with a small child and a dog. It was lovely and well kept. The property owners are very thoughtful and considerate providing cups, plates cutlery for small people.

The owners friendly and helpful. A pair of tongs for cooking would be helpful and maybe bins for the bedrooms, otherwise we had everything we needed. We had a mouse which we were warned might happen being in the countryside. But we were given a humane trap which worked very well. A lovely stay in a lovely part of the island.
