First time I came was good, price was great. Tried booking a second time today and was told by the owner to book through her instead of booking.com. she told me $450 for a one bed room for two nights, booking.com said $315. I told her the quote I got online and she was rude to me in the emails and said fine, book through booking.com. Don't want to stay somewhere where the owner tries to rip you off and might spit in your breakfast for booking elsewhere for cheaper....

Loved this place. My partner surprised me with a weekend getaway almost 3 years ago but he never told me the name nor did I remember to take a business card. I've been thinking about this place for years as I enjoyed it so much. The warm fire place, the sweet cottage, the coziness, I miss it all. Ontop of that, our dogs also got to enjoy a mini-holiday. It was only decently my partner told me the nme, so I had to leave a review! Highly recommend!! The owners are Lovely!!
