  : - The view - The people who run the place are very available and are doing their best. - The house we stayed is spacious and equipped. - Located near a great river beach.
  : - The house we stayed in is located far from the main building and there was no Wi-Fi in the room. - Some of the facilities are tired. - There was a very bad smell coming from the toilet. The staff tried to take care of it and succeeded only for intervals. It had a major affect on our stay. - The breakfast includes mainly sweet pastry. It was with good quality for those who want that. - There were no vegetables and only 2 kinds of fruit. - The air condition is only in the main area. It didnt reach the bedroom or the gallery.

  : I have a couple of food allergies, one of which is wheat (gluten intolerance). Virtually everything on the breakfast bar was a bread product of some kind. Without our even having to ask, the manager prepared a nice plate of sliced fruit which was very accommodating.
  : The small wooden bistro chairs on the terrace were VERY uncomfortable to sit on for more that 5-10 minutes. One of the major reasons for selecting this cottage was it's great view, so not having any comfortable seating made enjoying that view difficult. We wound up driving to a home store and purchasing a couple of folding patio chairs so that we could enjoy the terrace. Everything about the cottage was clean and really quite nice. Unfortunately, there was a nasty smell in the bathroom which never went away. I suspect it was coming from the septic system.
