ClaudiaUnited KingdomWe loved the stunning location, amount of space in the cottage and super helpful hosts.
Shower door was broken, and loungers outside could have been covered to keep them clean perhaps.

Questions about Zef's Cottage
What time is check-in and check-out at Zef's Cottage?
Check-in is from 5:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Zef's Cottage allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Is breakfast included at Zef's Cottage?
Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.
Does Zef's Cottage have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Zef's Cottage have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Zef's Cottage?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
