The cottage is cute and is as described. Very quaint. Easy to get to and from center of NOTL. Quiet area. Enough kitchen utensils to cook with. Would have liked a welcoming binder with rules, dos and don'ts, how to operate heating system, brochures with info on restaurants, wineries, etc.

Awesome little cottage in a great location. Short walk to everything. Great spot to ride bikes from to all the wineries and breweries. Written instructions for use of the TV would be most helpful.

This cottage was just adorable! We loved it and would stay there again. We came to see plays at the Shaw Festival; stayed four nights and saw six plays. Positives were the kitchen cooking vessels and implements—everything you could think of—and the best bed ever!!!Hanging our clothes was a challenge with no closets! We ended up leaving our hanging clothes in our car. We would have liked more than two hand towels for the bathroom—plenty of bath towels and wash cloths. Additional hand towels, tea towels and dish cloths would have been helpful. We needed a dustpan and brush, and a broom would have been nice.The location was a bit far from the Festival Theatre and downtown. We love to walk to the theatre, but now that we’re “senior citizens” getting downtown was quite a hike. We drove partway and then walked the rest of the way to the Festival Theatre.
