Friendly host, lovely gardens, quaint and clean but small space. About a 20-25 minute walk to the Main Street with the shops, a bit further than I was hoping for! That aside, this place is affordable, and perfect for a 2 night stay. Rented bikes for the day and it was so much fun, and so beautiful.

This was a very nice place. I was specifically looking for a cottage setting, close to the everything, but a place that we could also prepare meals. The gardens are very nice and it was a delight to sit outside with a glass of local wine.

Our host, Pauline, was wonderful and welcoming to us and our pup. She even provided homemade dog biscuits. The available dog bowls were handy, and the dog towels were also appreciated since it had rained the first day. The fully enclosed garden was perfect for our dog. Leela enjoyed exploring the meandering paths. The kitchen was very well equipped. We enjoyed our early morning coffee while gazing out into the lovely backyard from the comfort of the living room. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. We would definitely recommend this spot to anyone wanting a pet-friendly place to stay in Niagara on the Lake.

Fantastic host, location, and property. We were 100% satisfied with our stay at this charming cottage. It is in the perfect location for exploring NOTL and the surrounding area. The host was extremely welcoming and even looked after our dog while we toured the area. Could not be happier with our stay. Thank you Pauline!

A cozy, convenient cottage

Alnwick is a small but comfortable cottage with every amenity you can think of. A carport turned into a sun porch gives you more room for dining and relaxing. Guests also have the use of a beautiful back garden. If you are there for the Shaw Festival, it's a 15 - 20 minute walk to the Festival and Royal George Theaters. Pauline is a welcoming hostess, but gives you your privacy. She will also spoil your dogs with homemade treats! We would definitely stay there again.

We ditched the theatre to enjoy the beautiful environment!

I had treated my sister to tickets for the theatre and rented this property for our stay. It’s absolutely lovely, to the point that we only stayed for 1/2 of one show and completely ditched the Saturday matinee I had booked. It was so peaceful, private and quiet we decided to eat in, have a few drinks on our private patio. Rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels and so many birds chirping it was a little slice of heaven!

Wonderful stay

We absolutely loved Pauline's property. The cottage was quaint, cozy and clean. It provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The sunroom was excellent. It gave us so much more additional room. However the BEST was the outdoor space. We felt we were in secret gardends. Absolutely lovely! Thank you Pauline for sharing your property with us! We will be back !

About the host

Hosted by Pauline Sullivan

Host profile image
We are the Sullivans, Pauline and Clair. We live on the property, which we find very convenient, problems, help with restaurant recommendations, even pet sitting have all been our pleasure to perform.

Why they chose this property

We originally purchased 659 King Street, for its close proximity to Live theatre and a wonderful golf course. It was originally used by the family as 2 cottages, 1 for guests. After retiring we decided to live in the front cottage and rent the rear cottage as a vacation spot.
