Absolute bliss

10.0

We loved everything about our stay in Criffel Bluffs cottage. Upon arrival we were greeted by the lovely Lesley and David who showed us around and we even met their cat Barker! (Who knows he isn’t allow inside). The cottage is spacious, warm and has everything you need inside. The bed is very comfortable. Very thoughtful touches like electronic blankets and heated flooring in the bathroom. The VIEWS from the cottage are fantastic and we enjoyed some wine and antipasto on the balcony. The kitchen has all the staples you need and we loved making breakfast! Visiting in late April we were treated to all the beautiful autumn colours in the tree. We will absolutely return again.

This place... just WOW!!!!! INCREDIBLE!!!! Truly one of our favorite places we have ever stayed!!!!! Our hosts were incredibly sweet and went out of their way to make sure we felt welcome and had everything we needed. They provided us with tons of fresh groceries and snacks and a lovely little Christmas gift as well. The property is unbelievably gorgeous!!!!!! PRISTINE gardens and spectacular view! The view from the bed is divine and such a joy to wake up to! The bed was extremely comfortable and all the amenities were top notch. I really cannot say enough about it. It was only about a 7-minute drive to the main town. Easy. I highly highly recommend this lovely home!!!!!!

Un soggiorno incantato che ricorderemo a lungo.

La vista, il giardino, la tranquillità, la qualità dei mobili, del letto, delle strutture sanitarie. I proprietari estremamente gentili, e la disponibilità in abbondanza e qualità di tutto ciò di cui avevamo bisogno per la colazione. Assolutamente un gioiello.

Questa struttura è eccezionale e perfetta, ma se dovessi andare a cercare dei difetti, piuttosto dei suggerimenti per rendere la struttura ancora più perfetta, direi le poche prese elettriche e il loro posizionamento non molto comodo per collegare due prese distinte, lo schermo TV un po' troppo piccolo (ma in realtà non c'è posto perché la parete dove si trova ha le meravigliose porte-finestre che danno sul giardino), e le pentole/piastra di cottura non abbastanza grandi per cuocere la pasta secondo i protocolli italiani ortodossi.
