Similar cottage photographs can represent very different accommodation: an entire private house, one unit in a complex, or several rooms with shared outdoor and kitchen areas. Establish which spaces are exclusive to your group, how the stated capacity is divided between permanent beds and sofa beds, and which facilities are included before comparing prices.
Ask for the number of separate bedrooms, bed types and bathrooms, then allocate rooms for couples, children and guests who need privacy. If several buildings appear in the listing, confirm which rooms are in the same structure. Obtain an exact address or map pin and compare it with your own itinerary rather than relying on a general claim that the property is “near” somewhere.
Drivers should confirm parking location and capacity; guests without a car should assess their transport arrangements. Stairs, floor levels, entrances and bathroom access should be discussed where anyone in the group has limited mobility.
Ask which rooms are heated and what the kitchen actually contains. For a fireplace, barbecue area, sauna, pool or other additional facility, establish availability, whether it is private, its operating rules and any extra charge. If a particular feature determines the booking, request current confirmation rather than relying solely on older photographs.
Record the dates, nights, guest count, total charge and payment schedule before paying. Clarify cleaning, extra beds, firewood, late checkout and facility fees. An advance payment or security deposit needs clear cancellation, refund and deduction terms, together with evidence of payment.
Disclose any celebration, music, daytime visitors or pets in advance. Confirm check-in, key collection, late-arrival contact and checkout arrangements. On arrival, report existing damage or unavailable facilities promptly and retain photographs where appropriate.
