Peaceful getaway
The cottage was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of life. It was appointed with everything we needed, with the toys and art and craft supplies particularly handy when the weather turned. The bread and other treats Minette supplied were an extra special touch. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Perfect escape
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. It was even nicer in person — a relaxing vibe and peaceful space, super clean, and a great location to explore the area from. Also a family-friendly house- comfortable for our 2 year old. Minette, the host, was so lovely to communicate with. We really appreciated the fresh bread, jam, and wine. We will be back and would highly recommend 😊 thank you!
