Has potential
The house has potential to be good. The location was good and amenities are what a traveling family needs. However, it needs a good cleaning and had an unpleasant smell. The living room tv didn’t turn on, bedroom drawers didn’t have knobs, lamp lacked a knob and couldn’t be used, hot tub smelled bad. It had character and was cute but it needed some love.

July trip
It was a nice house. There where a few bumps like I didn't know the oven didn't work so we had to make do and there was a repair man fixing the railing which we didn't mind but then we had a surprise man there to fix the broken garage door. In all it had its ups and downs but it was a nice house

Very comfortable stay!
This house has everything! All kitchen utensils, dishwasher, washer/dryer, 3 beds and a pull out bed on the couch (not so comfortable) but this house has everything needed for a comfortable stay. Plenty of sheets and towels. Close to the sea wall with a hot tub and patio in the back yard. We didn’t use the bikes available but they were a nice touch. The owner has great communication. We hope to be back!
