Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicole Q. 23 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute little cottage The property is well located and nearby to the main the park. The property was clean and well appointed. A little quirky as a result of the age of the house, but in a good way. The house is cute though not in a ‘pretty’ area. One bedroom was ‘hidden’ behind a wall. ##### Nicole Q.

A lovely well equiped house in a great location. Only feedback was back cottage was super hot when we opened it up. However didn’t take long to cool down when windows and doors were opened for a while. Without a doubt we would stay there again. Thanks to the host. Sean Cunningham and family. ##### Sean C.
