Lovely little cottage. Upstairs loft bedroom could be challenging for older guests. Would have liked a large pot for cooking pasta, and an outdoor bar-b-q. Ideal for short stays.

It was very quiet and enjoyable. The one thing we didn't realize when we moved in was that it had only one bathroom, but that was our fault for not checking the listing more closely when we originally booked. It really is a lovely spot, and close to some of our favourite farm stands, plus the Salt Spring Cheese Factory.
