Our group of four enjoyed our stay in this lovely farmhouse very much. We arrived in an unexpected and untimely snowstorm and the weather prevented us from experiencing Wellington the way we hoped, but we were cozy in our accommodations. I was especially impressed with the ease of communication with our host and we really appreciated the snow clearing that was done for us. We are already talking about a return to this property.

We had a great stay! The house is very comfortable for a family of 6. It is centrally located in Wellington, everything is walking distance. The house was clean and had all the necessary supplies, even books and games for the kids. The host is very responsive. We will definitely come back!

Lovely cottage in a lovely village!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Richard was very attentive and responsive. We loved how close we were to the beach, shops and restaurants. Sitting in the summer porch enjoying our morning coffee as we watched the roses bud and bloom and watching the early morning activities, was one of my favourite things. The strawberries were ready for picking and sweet like candy! We plan to return soon!

Absolutely loved our stay!

Our group, made up of seven of our high school friends, have been getting together once annually for forty years. This has been one of the best stays we have had! Excellent location, close to great restaurants, wineries and interesting villages to explore. The house was perfect for the seven people. Comfortable beds and spacious enough for all of us.

Delightful

Great location, quaint spot that is beautifully decorated and maintained. Cozy and well set up. Really nice to be so close to everything. It’s easy to walk to cafes, a brewery, groceries, a park and library. Also great in terms of location to the wineries and the lake. We are happy to stay there again!

The cottage is well equipped and in a very convenient location. Walking distance to everything in Wellington, which has more to offer than we imagined. And a short drive to Picton, wineries, and Sandbanks provincial park. Richard is a great host.
