Hillsborough Cottage is a really good holiday house with great space and tastefully renovated but let down by the fact it was quite grubby. Just needs a good deep clean! It would also benefit from aircon on hotter days

Reviewer Comments:
Was a great location, and a great home. Only fault was no air conditioning made it uncomfortably hot. Would be perfect on cooler months.

Reviewer Comments:
Disappointing. The house was not clean, there were dead insects all over the walls and floor. It stank of pesticide. Cobwebs in the bedrooms. Fly-screens that were broken and let in mosquitoes. No bin liners. No coffee table to go with the admittedly comfortable seating. No linen, despite the hefty price tag. No wifi either. And just a remnant toilet roll, no refills. Otherwise the place was pleasant enough and in a nice location, the outlook from the back deck sweet despite the plastic grass.The narrow occupation window, check-in from 3.00pm Friday, despite that we paid for a full day, and check-out at 9.00am, seemed extortionate. Perhaps the cleaners were on their way?
