Overall, it was okay, but there was a worm in one of the duvets, some dirt on the duvet cover, and a few of the blankets weren't completely clean. There were some flies and other small insects in the upstairs bathroom. We also weren't prepared for the fact that there would be no hand soap, dish soap, napkins, or similar items.
Heerlijke Huisje's response:
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear your stay was generally enjoyable. We're sorry to hear about the issues with the bedding and insects. We'll address this directly with the owner to improve the cleanliness and hygiene. Unfortunately, dish soap, hand soap, etc., are not always provided in the accommodation. In most cases, guests must bring their own. We hope you had a wonderful time despite these issues.

It was quite a long walk from the car to the cottage.
Excellent
