A beautiful, spotless cottage in a perfect location
Pros:

Absolutely gorgeous cottage. It was spotlessly clean and beautifully, tastefully decorated throughout. The location was perfect, and we really enjoyed having access to the bikes and beach equipment. You can clearly tell the owners have put a lot of thought into the design and little details.

Cons:

Nothing!

We loved the place
Pros:

Very stylish and beautifuly decorated. We really loved the bikes, the pool and the whole place. It is so relaxing.

Cons:

Some more kitchen utensils would have been great, and an extra chair for the table (we were 5 and the table only had 4 chairs), and some more possibilities to hang towels in the bathroom.
