There was a dog and we were able to bring ours which was great. the owners were friendly. The location was beautiful and convenient. The house was too small for 4 adults, especially given the cost. Things like kitchen utensils need upgrading.

Property described as containing a queen, one twin and a double sofa bed. Actually a queen, one single bed and a double sofa bed. Overall accomodation is run down and overly expensive for what is offered. Some nice touches but the basics aren’t up to the standard required.

This was just simply wonderful. An outdoor bath under the stars, super comfortable cottage, friendly hosts and freshly baked bread in the morning. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Very Overpriced
Myra was a very nice host and she has a lovely lavender store which I highly recommend. Cabin is very run down and way too expensive for what it is. Was not clean and the dishes were dirty but Myra did give us a credit to help make it up to us. Was very quiet and the bed was comfortable. No wifi.

Great hotel close to town
Beautiful little cottage on a lavender farm, secluded, friendly owners and lots of thoughtful touches. We got brought homemade bread and fresh eggs each morning. In the cottage we stayed at there was also an outside bath and shower as well as the one in the cottage, to enjoy a nice lavender scented bath out in nature! We will be back for sure! Thanks
