Easy to find, easy to eat more than needed
Easy to find - easy to check-in, nice room and WC very close-by. The provided breakfast set the bar for all the guesthouses we stayed in, with a greater variety of options - easy to get more than needed, as there were so many great things to choose from.

This was great cottage overall but I did not like the bathroom in which you had to shower above the sink. No proper drainage and the cottage could use more cleaning. Other than that I was there for just one night and nothing much to point out. I would make the bathroom better to gain more stars

Bushy and extremely quiet area. Wifi was usually good, sometimes it dropped off. We drank from the tap water amazingly safe. Google maps not functioning well in the areas. But we managed to find the property easily.

Cute little cottage
Got a nice little cottage. The place is pretty remote on a dirt road. Which was part of the appeal of it. Ate dinner there (food was ok). Service was great. Everyone I encountered there seemed really focused on service. The cottage itself was fairly basic. No TV but had wifi. The shower was awkwardly in the bathroom.
