Very well stocked. Stunning remote location. Lots of attention to detail, beautiful cottage. Only thing was we found the water to not be palatable so we bought water to cook with and drink. Otherwise all was great!

This property is exceptionally appointed, very inviting and comfortable. They provide everything you could need for your stay - even things you haven't thought of! Kitchen is more fully stocked than my own. Despite being near the road it is very quiet and tranquil as there is minimal traffic. The view is stunning and relaxing! We had a fawn romp through the yard one morning. A great location for exploring local areas, especially beaches. There are several within a 30 minute drive.All our expectations were met and we had a lovely time. Wished we had been able to stay longer.

This was a lovely cottage. It was further from town than we realized but the sanctuary was very nice. The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The view was gorgeous and free of light pollution at night. Serenity, indeed.
