This property is in close proximity to Killick Beach. The garden is lovely and the updated kitchen is good. While we are grateful there was a property in our price range, holiday makers should know the bunk bed room is not private and doesn't have a sealed wall, ceiling fan or its own door. The mattress in the "main" bedroom is the least comfortable of the three double bedrooms. ##### jacqueline w.

The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Quaint cottage, but would benefit from a bit more upkeep.Screens on windows or screen door on back door would make it much more liveable, for fresh air, without the bugs. Ants seem to be trying to move in, and we are use to this but some people would be put off by this.Location is good, and we would return ##### Amy O.

The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All was great and I’ll use the house again.The booking systems are flawed though. I originally booked through WotIf, who took my bank details as part of the booking confirmation. I received an email from elders realestate as well requesting payment t by bank transfer. I paid elders directly by bank transfer immediately to secure the property. The next day WotIf also took payment from my credit card. So I paid twice!! Elders realestate kindly arranged for a refund of one of the payments. But this issue left me out of pocket for a few days. Pls fix the booking system. ##### Willem W.
