We did a lot of research because we wanted to visit during the best weather so we came during summer. We arrived on 3/3 and departed on 3/6, on the first night there was a cold spell. We looked at the weather app and it said it was 12° outside, but it said that it was more like 2° because it was very windy. We were in the living room area and it was very cold. I even had a wool sweater on. We turned on the floor heating and wall fireplace. Nowhere were instructions not to turn anything on. In fact, the switches to both had the names of them. I was reading a book when the owner, Pip passed by and told me she was turning off the fireplace. She looked mad and told me in a mean tone that I was being disrespectful to those that lived there and to the other guests. It caught me off guard and I apologized several times. She got closer and then proceeded to tell me about the gas shortage on the island and that if I was cold, I should’ve told her. We didn’t even know she lived on site. Second, we’re adults. Who asks permission to turn on the heat, especially when you’re paying top dollar for a room? I apologized again and again. I hung my head and put my hands up to my face. I went to the room upset. I couldn’t sleep and neither did my sister. The rest of the stay was very uncomfortable for all 4 that stayed in 2 rooms. She could have used kind words and tone and achieved a better outcome and not ruined our stay or had this negative review. Do Not Recommend.
