Great communication with Colin throughout our stay. Very comfortable and excellent location. It’s an older home that has updated renovations. It would help if the windows had more screens for the breeze to come in. We were fortunate that the evenings were cool. We would book this property again

This meticulously refurbished home, is like walking into a living design magazine that seamlessly blends the best of two worlds. The owners have masterfully executed a brilliant fusion of the home's original character with the smart, accessible design of modernized finishes, all while prioritizing mindful refurbishment of existing elements. The one downside for us was seeing that original elements give a cottag-ey smell/feel likely since it is genuine original infrastructure.
