Overall we had a lovely time with our family at this cottage. It is an older cottage, with lots of cottage charm and a beautiful view of the water. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the beach very much and had some lovely bond fires, but make sure to check for available firewood. The kitchen and eating area are big, with a large dining table, great for family meals and lots of room to cook (with the BBQ close to the kitchen). There are lots of stairs, both inside and out, as well as rocks, and stone walkways around the property, so care needs to be taken with young children. Caitlin was quick to respond to questions and we knew she was available to help us if we needed anything. Thank you Caitlin for a lovely stay!
