Wildwood Valley Cottages offer a rustic, no-frills stay in a great location. We stayed in Dragonfly Cottage, which had strong wifi, plenty of TV channels for rainy days, and a cozy fireplace with wood provided. ||The view across the valley is lovely, though the sense of privacy is limited - the main house and reception overlook the cottage and not all windows have coverings. ||Our main issue was the check-in experience. Booking.com lists the property as “Each room includes a bath, fireplace, and free WiFi,” and our confirmation specifically mentioned “an additional bathroom” and a “washing machine”. On arrival, we were given only an ensuite with a shower. When I queried the missing bath, Sioban said it would have been a booking option - and implied my husband had made an error - but that option was never presented. She did allow us access to the bathroom with the bath and the washing machine, but then asked us not to use our ensuite, which felt awkward and inconsistent with our booking. At $325 per night, it was disappointing not to receive what was advertised. ||Overall, a peaceful place to stay - just be sure to confirm key amenities with the property directly if certain features matter to you, like the advertised bath (and washing machine).
