Myself and some friends had a wonderful weekend at Johns cottage. The location is stunning and the cottage itself a wonderful place to stay. Highly recommend!
The property was everything promised and more! The owners went out of their way to make it a pleasant stay with all the personal touches found around the cottage. It was a truly enjoyable time!
This was a perfect getaway for my family and I! Drinking water was provided in the fridge which was really nice. John was very helpful from beginning to end and definitely went above and beyond to be an accommodating host. No complaints or inconveniences at all. We hope to be back soon! Thank you
