Thanks again for the opportunity to stay at the cottage on Saltspring. I thought I would drop a short email to tell you how much we enjoyed it. It was lovely and peaceful with plenty of wildlife.The windowed front with views onto long harbour and all its wildlife was great and it was good to get onto it with the rowboat.The other four in the family all play piano and found it a real delight to have one there.I think they were queueing to play it! It was the first time we ever rented somewhere that had a piano. In the whole week the tv wasnt switched on once. If we ever make it back to saltspring we would love to rent seabreeze again.
