Beautiful Property but Steep, Muddy paths and Smelly water
The Cottage is beautiful and just the right size and location for me. Amazing flowers inside and out. Working BBQ and oven and dishwasher... The linen was clean and plentiful. Everything one might want in the kitchen was present. Art! However, the water really stank and I felt stinky every time I got out of the bath or shower for the first two weeks, after that the smell did lessen. Also, the tv didn't work properly. The driveway was pretty hazardous when I first arrived but after a few extra days of Torrentially-heavy rain, it became unusable. Unfortunately the host was away overseas and couldn't address my text messages. We did come to an agreement and she refunded me 250 because I slipped and fell several times getting down under the house to the laundry and up to my car. I had to park at the top of the property and walk up and down the extremely steep slope on the loose gravel, in the pouring rain. I found that the beautiful cut flowers and unique ceramics and art, as well as the lovely garden were extremely pleasant and the bed I used was very comfortable. I was glad I could turn off the wifi whenever I didn't want it on. I was very glad for the filter on the kitchen sink. The host has told me she will repair the driveway and put in some pavers so it is not so unsafe to use the home during the rainy season. I hope so, because it is a lovely place and I was sorry I was in so much pain on so many days. it did colour my experience of the home.
