We loved our short stay. The house is lovey and well appointed. And it's just steps away from the Main Street in Wellington. Would go back for sure.

A group of long time friends stayed here. Excellent location. All the comforts of home. Fantastic stay ! May want fans for upstairs as the weather heats up - even with AC!

Beautiful property and very close to all the hype Wellington has to offer. We would do a little 5 min stroll in the morning to pick up a great coffee and pastry before heading to the beach/park.
The hosts were also very responsive and helpful! Highly recommend.

The location is great and it’s within walking distance to grocery and restaurants. Everything was as described and communication with the host was good. Perhaps the cookware could benefit from a refresh but aside from that the cottage was great.

The amenities were great and made our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The host was attentive and provided clear instructions, ensuring everything went smoothly.

We are a group of 8 adults who all agree that this cottage was perfect! It's spacious and very clean. Restaurants and beach (Wellington) are within walking distance. Short drive to many wineries. Great yard for games and evening fire. We all had an amazing time!!

We had a lovely time at CC’s Cottage. Marcy is a great host that answered all our questions. The kitchen is large and conducive to gatherings and the outdoor deck space is great for meals and hangouts. The rooms are large and the beds are comfy. We had a great time in the County!

We were so impressed by how close the cottage is to everything. Beach, park, grocery, cute shops, cafes, art studios etc. location alone would have me recommending this rental but the cottage itself was so perfect for us. We loved that there were so many places for us to hang out, the shaded front porch, the back deck, and big back yard with a fire pit. Even for 8 adults we didn’t feel crowded! Wished we could have stayed longer!
