    “We enjoyed a week at 5 Blackshore Cottage ultimately because of the location of the property and the size of the cottage.”

    The cottage itself is in desperate need of some maintenance, a deep clean and a new bed in the master bedroom, has to be the worst we have ever slept in. The property has great potential.

    Thank you for you feedback and we are pleased you enjoyed the location. I will look into the cleanliness of the property and to look at the bed. The mattress is very new so I am sorry you found it uncomfortable. Property Owner
