    Nice alternative to staying in hotel. Having the convenience of a sitting room and a full kitchen at your disposal. Shower pressure was excellent. Hosts were really helpful and responsive.

    The cottage was super close to the places we were visiting while using this as our base. The parking space was super useful too. Hosts were quick to respond when messaged and couldn't have been more helpful :)
