8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
The property itself was great, and exactly as advertised. The hosts were really friendly and communicative. They also left us some staples in the kitchen (tea, coffee, bread, milk, orange juice etc). Which was lovely.The parking situation however was a real pain. Parking is on the road (which is noted on the listing). Though, the road get’s busy. So, on some days we were able to park relatively close. On other days, we had to park several minutes walk away. A situation not helped by a land slip, that has cut off some of the road.I would also note that access to the property, is up a steep slope (and/or steep narrow steps). Therefore, it is probably not suitable for anyone who isn’t 100% sure footed (it’s also a challenge with heavy/bulky luggage).For the three of us guys on a long weekend golf trip, it was perfectly fine. However, would not be the property for everyone.

This property was the perfect weekend trip away, with it being fairly modern. The owner had left some essential products which was a lovely touch, we were able to check in early which was perfect as we had arrived a lot earlier than expected. We was blown away with how nice is was and how spacious it was. The parking out the front was okay but found it hard during the week day with two cars. On my google maps it took us to another place but it is on the main road to your left going up the hill. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the Cube with friends and family. Beautiful house, set in peaceful greenery. Perfect location for exploring the area!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2022
The property is very good and the terrace excellent, the back garden is steep. The main problem is the access, up a long slope or steps and then a narrow steep climb to the house.
Parking was also a major issue as the residents of a long terrace take up most of the parking most of the time, some never moved the whole week we were there.
