Chrissie welcomed us, we were early, no problem for her and the staff. We were settled in no time. The place is exactly per the pics, we rate it 10/10 cleanliness, and service. The breakfast was plain yet enough. Vibe in the house was relaxing. Lots of privacy. Plenty spaces to move in whilst in dining area. Christie we will be back
First impressions count and the first thing we noticed when we arrived is there isn't a hotel sign or even a number on the outside of the property? Luckily every home along the road does have a number so it was easy to work out but why wouldn't you have a sign on a business? The next thing we noticed was a notice on the front door saying check out was at 10 am, despite our confirmation stating it was 11am. When we pointed this out we were told emphatically that it was 10 am and that was it. I'd particularly booked this property because it had an 11 o'clock check out as that timed well with our next stop because we don't like to drive around and park our vehicle with all our luggage on show. In fairness, when checking out at 10, we were told we were welcome to sit in the lounge or around the pool etc. The room itself was spacious but another note said that we couldn't use the large corner bath. The lighting in the room is awful, with every light on it was still difficult to see to shave etc. The staff are pleasant enough and everything worked, there's a nice little pool with a few sun loungers. Breakfast was limited to eggs,bacon, mushrooms and toast but no cereal or fruit offerings, which was a first on this trip. Overall it was pleasant enough but with so much choice in the area, we'll choose somewhere else next time.
They are very rude and unhelpful you have to buy your own food there breakfast only two eggs and they will not give more even if your gona pay for it ! , I like only the view and the room, and there is too much small insects
