In deed this was a cozy cottage! Our communication with the host was excellent, she was super accommodating. There were lots of extra surprises in the cottage that we were not expecting which made our stay so much more pleasant. The walk to the beach was just right. I highly recommend booking here.

Great Overall Stay

Loved the set up. Spacious rooms. Lots of cooking and kitchen equipment, plates, utensils, etc.A few things that would've made this stay extra stellar:- an extra bathroom, as sharing 1 among 5 adults and 3 kids is a little challenging- including bathroom amenities (shampoo, body wash) would've been nice- a few too many restrictions with cleanliness (garbage disposal, cooking, etc.) as I would happily pay a clean up fee to have this taken care of- Pull out couch a tad uncomfortable and difficult to sleep on as it drops in the middle Things I enjoyed:- in suite laundry- outdoor BBQ area- quiet community- attentive service managerHot tips for new travelers:- Bring your own seasonings (oil, spices, etc.)- Bring own coffee (brew coffee pot on site)- Bring own toiletriesOverall a great value stay and would return again. Thank you!

The house made the trip

If this house wasn't what it claimed to be then this getaway with our closest friends would have been very different. It was great! The location was central to everything we wanted to go and do. It was big enough to comfortably house 8 of us, with 4 kids six years and younger! We explored the beaches, coombs, mini golf, and more and having this home to go back to made it all easier. The streets are quiet and safe, making it fun for the kids to run and scooter around.

Lovely cottage

We were very pleased with our cottage. It's very cute, generally well equipped, and in a great location. We loved being so close to Rathtrevor Beach. The resort grounds are beautifully kept, and we felt very safe there. We were pleased to have a back deck and barbeque, as we ate all our meals outside. The kitchen is very well equipped, and we appreciated the laundry facilities. There were only a few drawbacks: - It doesn't really accommodate 8 people as advertised. Perhaps if several of the people are children, it would be fine, but if you're all adults, it doesn't work well. We were 4 women who all wanted our own beds. However, we discovered the pullout sofa in the loft is unsleepable because of the bars across your back and the saggy mattress. This really needs to be replaced. The bed in the second bedroom is only a double, so it's not big enough for 2 adults. In addition, there were only enough sheets for 3 beds, not 4. - Could I recommend putting a few mirrors in various rooms? The only mirror was in the bathroom, which was a challenge for 4 women! - Perhaps the owners could consider putting in A/C. We were fine while the weather was pleasant, but the last couple of days started to heat up, and it was difficult to sleep at night. Overall, we had a very nice stay at the cottage, and I'd certainly stay again, although not with 4 adults. Thanks, Dahlia, for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage!

Let’s call it awesome

Everything about this process and property was ….awesome. Well appointed, clean unit with all the amenities your require along with a BBQ, Keurig coffee machine and a regular coffee maker AND an air fryer. Linens and towels were good quality and plenty. We have stayed in numerous VRBO properties over the years and this was the nicest we have stayed at. Highly recommended….although we may not be able to get a booking now that I mention this. It is our intention to return to this area and this property. George & Patti B.

Short ride to Oceanside

Fantastic. Halloween is my favourite time of year and at the main building it was all decorated for Halloween. The decorations were awesome and every night we went for a walk and take a look and take some pictures. The resort is just a short walk away from the beach and if you wanted to walk to town it wasn’t far. The resort was a main base for us as we explored surrounding areas. We will definitely be returning with extended family. 😊
