A small but wonderful cottage on the outskirts of town. Quiet and rural, we wanted a place to relax without traffic or noise. There are sheep and cows in the area, chickens, some cute bunnies and pheasants running around. The owners are wonderful people who helped us throughout our stay. We stayed a week and although small, the cottage had everything we needed - and if not, the owners were right there helping. The outdoor seating area is great on spring and summer days, completely enclosed for comfort, a bbq, grill, and tables to enjoy, it complements the inside area which has the kitchen, bathroom, and bed area. There is always hot water, the cottage was super clean, no bugs to bother the outdoor eating area (nor inside), comfortable bed, and all cooking items that are needed. The only comment is that we left our suitcases on the porch area as there is no closet but, the owner brought over a clothes rack and we are happy to live out of our suitcases as we are competent nomads. We would definitely com back. Note for the area, there does not seem to be an active taxi service although there are a few in the town (you might see them), and car rentals are difficult - Rent a car before arriving in the area, it is much more convenient and less costly.

Wouldn’t recommend this plc to anyone! Very poor unventilated tiny bedroom with terrible sewage smell in bathroom when having shower & flushing toilet, or running water, bedside lamp was wired together to make switch work which came apart & I got a electric shock, owners came over to the room a few times in a day, so I found this rather rude & gave me feeling that my privacy was breached, so in all I was very disappointed with my whole experience at the Cosy Cabin DO NOT RECOMMEND !!!!

Perfect experience

Hosts gave easy to understand instructions on how to find the place. It was perfect for what we needed, cozy and comfy. Not having to bring towels and sheets made it much easier as well and very much appreciated. They said hello and gave our dog Snow so pats and made us feel very welcome. House was super close to so many awesome things, such as the town and 90 mile beach. My partner is already talking about when we go next time!
