I never write a review but I felt the need to let other families know the details of this cottage. I found the cottage more worn then the pictures showed. When we arrived many parts of the cottage were not clean...coffee in the pot, open food in the cabinets, high touch surfaces not cleaned (cabinet knobs, door knobs, faucet) and when the cleaner came back she noted that they have to turn these over fast so they cant clean everything. The yard is beautiful but the cottage itself on the outside is not maintained (spiderwebs, dust, window sills not clean) this may be the reason why we had an infestation of bugs in the cottage (killed at least 10 a day). The stairs are very steep and the baby gate they show in the pictures is no longer there so we had to barricade the top so our kids did not go down at night. I did appreciate the beach wagon and the short walk to the beach but for the price and the cleanliness I would not book this cottage again.
