Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. We had a very comfortable stay. Road to the hotel is gravel and that’s the only negative point about this hotel.

Easy to find, easy to eat more than needed
Easy to find - easy to check-in, nice room and WC very close-by. The provided breakfast set the bar for all the guesthouses we stayed in, with a greater variety of options - easy to get more than needed, as there were so many great things to choose from.

Very clean room, spacious and a very polite, friendly and warm host. The family running the guesthouse does everything with love and you can see that! Breakfast is a great. Only thing, maybe a kettle could be handy. I'd love to make a coffee and hot water can help with that.

Disliked: Amenities
This was great cottage overall but I did not like the bathroom in which you had to shower above the sink. No proper drainage and the cottage could use more cleaning. Other than that I was there for just one night and nothing much to point out. I would make the bathroom better to gain more stars

Cute little cottage
Got a nice little cottage. The place is pretty remote on a dirt road. Which was part of the appeal of it. Ate dinner there (food was ok). Service was great. Everyone I encountered there seemed really focused on service. The cottage itself was fairly basic. No TV but had wifi. The shower was awkwardly in the bathroom.
