Everything you might need is on hand including all new appliances, air conditioning and heat pump, a Smart TV and you'll have access to WiFi in case the weather takes a turn.
Unwind on site and admire the peace and quiet or stroll to the lake a 5-minute walk from your front door, or make the most of being so close to the local cafes and restaurants within a 10-minute walk.

Great that the cottage has the option to take your pet. Unsure whether cleaning is an option somehow (it was automatically added to the booking when I used wotif). I’d recommend the owners not make self cleaning an option, or to check in/reassess the cleaner used. Whilst the property is superficially cleaned, it really needs a thorough clean between guests and “stuff” should be packed away neatly or put into storage (contents in the laundry, rooms, etc). For the nightly price paid, you could stay in a nice motel/hotel.
