Lovely studio/cottage with views

Nestled on a quiet farm, this lovely studio/cottage has views to the hills behind Port Elliot. Th space is very nicely set out with lovely touches and everything you need for a short stay. It is sans oven but has a microwave and stovetop. It's about a 5-10 minute drive into Port Elliot.

We loved the way the cottage was set up , my wife (Jan) felt a home the minute we walked in,the bed was so comfortable,we didn't want to leave. I could go on for ages about the place .we will go back again soon. Cheers Paul

Disappointed

Was disappointed because it was listed as Premium luxury accomodation, and priced accordingly. On driving up to the property it didn’t look the best ie cobwebs were abundant, The outdoor seating area covered in bird droppings and did not entice me to sit outside. Inside was acceptable but no better than any other accommodation. I would say “surface clean” not a fan.

Lack of privacy

Generally, we found the place to be clean, comfortable and easily located. However we were disappointed by two things; the lack of blinds on the windows and the amount of traffic that drove past the accommodation on a private property. There is a window directly opposite the toilet that has no blind which looks right out onto the main residence and the driveway and the large bedroom window only has a sheer curtain, certainly see-through at night. This also looks out to the driveway. With the amount of cars driving past, this was indeed uncomfortable and really surprising. The front door is also bare of window furnishings and anyone coming down the driveway can see straight into the accommodation. We felt that each window should be properly fitted with blinds and it's up to the guests if they use them or not. Just a styling tip too - if you have vases in the rooms (there were four overall) and least put something in them. It doesn't need to be fresh flowers, but it then looks like you've gone to some trouble. You also need to update your information sheets - there were two of the same sheet in the leather binder and they were both badly stained - unprofessional. I also would have liked the property manager to send me a message about key collect/how to access the property etc. rather than me having to approach them on the actual day.
