Disappointing
My husband and I booked a much needed weekend away at Etna cottage. We soon realised that there was no body wash / soap or bottle opener supplied. We texted the number provided in the user manual to which we received a response 'IGA closes at 8pm'. Im sorry to say that is not good enough...There was no bulb in the bedside lamp, barely any paper towel provided, the kitchenware was filthy, (the oven glove had a hole in it). There was specific signage advising of high cleaning standards - how can you expect guests to clean something that was so filthy to begin with? i'm sorry but it was not acceptable.

Not what we had hoped for
Firstly we were put in a different cottage than we booked and told by the owner thats where we'll be staying, no sorry...wasnt a great start.
I had picked the Etna because it was seperate to the other two cottages and i really liked the look of the cottage.
Next was the wet firewood and kindling that we paid extra for that wouldnt stay alight because it was bubbling water and then fan doesnt work on the fire place.
The next set back was sitting down to a nice platter and bottle of wine in our smokey room while we had to listen to our neighbours in he throws of passion...hows the serenity.
Just when we thought things couldnt get worse the possum started scratching and running around the roof just as we settled into a comfy bed with the worst pillows ive ever slept on, one was like a rock the other felt like a handful of cotton balls in a pillow slip...the headache and neck pain was the worst.
Instead of a morning coffee on the patio we got a mud puddle at the front door and as for the spa, it was that freezing in the bathroom that i didnt even bother running it.
What was supposed to be a nice weekend without the kids and alarms for work, we come home completely exhausted and disappointed.
Booked for a friend's wedding
