To start, the setting of this cottage, and the cottage itself are incredible. The owner/host is a great open communicator, and our stay was every bit of the relaxing escape we were hoping for. We stayed here during the middle of winter, but could see the amazing potential of the property in the warmer months.
The drawbacks are few, but should be noted. As mentioned we stayed during the height of winter, so we spent nearly all of our time indoors.
The TV. During the warmer months, who cares much about the TV in a cottage, but in the winter it's a must. The pictures showed a reasonable sized TV but upon our arrival we saw what was barely a little 27" TV in a room much too big for this little monitor. Luckily two of our part weren't arriving until the next day so they were able to bring us a TV that allowed us to set it across the room and all be able to see the action. Of note, the Starlink internet is perfect on tis property, not inside and out, with all of us connected with our phones, laptops and the TV.
The couch. There is but the 1 couch in the main entertainment room where the TV and fireplace are, and it's very uncomfortable. It looks great and photographs well, but in terms of being a comfortable spot to relax it leaves much to be desired.
The kitchen. Most everything needs to be replaced in terms of the pans, pots and cooking utensils.
We'd go back, but would hope many of these items would be addressed in advance. It would be a 5-star if so.
