Uncomfortable stay, serious concerns about privacy and boundaries, especially for families travelling with children
The property itself provided accommodation for our family and was apparently pet-friendly, which was important to us when booking.
Unfortunately, our experience left us feeling uncomfortable and, at times, unsafe. I was particularly concerned about the owner’s interactions with my children while I was not home. He attempted to encourage them to leave the house to look at his animals, despite knowing they were home without me. We also noticed wet footprints outside our door on the first morning, which raised concerns that someone may have been standing there looking inside.
There were also repeated visits and questions directed at my children about their father, which I considered completely inappropriate and an invasion of our family’s privacy.
After speaking with previous guests, I became concerned that some of these boundary issues may not be isolated incidents. I cannot speak for other people’s experiences, but our own was enough to leave us uncomfortable.
I would particularly encourage women travelling alone with children to read the other guest reviews carefully before booking. Look beyond the property’s description and pay attention to what previous guests have said about their experiences with the owner. I genuinely believe families should feel safe and have their privacy respected when booking accommodation, and unfortunately, that was not our experience.
I am sure the owner will have his own response after I leave this feedback . However, this is my honest account of what happened during our stay. I anticipate the owner may respond with comments about the condition of the property when we departed. I want to make it clear that I personally checked the property after cleaning and before leaving, and I strongly disagree with any suggestion that we left it in an unacceptable condition. If the owner has evidence to support his claims, he is welcome to provide it.

We loved it. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the space was homely. Just the total privacy needs to be addressed
The property was lovely and the bird feeding each morning with my granddaughter was a fun activity to start the day and we spent our afternoons in the park. The home itself had everything we needed.
I would have preferred not seeing the owner midway through the day when I was in the backyard with my grandchild. Also, he’d come over when I’d gone out. Whilst he is nice, he is still a stranger to my grandchild and myself and I expect my privacy while paying a larger amount for a property. I felt this was an unnecessary encounter in a space I paid for.
