I was searching for a perfect place with a 3yo kid in mind. I have browsed not less than 50 listings and have shortlisted not less than 10 and have finally decided on Alison's lovely cottage and it did not disappoint us a bit! The cottage is clean, bright and as described, with a small lawn in front where we can sit around admiring the beautiful sky, the flowers and trees.
The cottage is very near to the beach (5 to 10 min's stroll) and the neighborhood is quiet. It is also very close to Hillary Harbour (10 min's drive) where you can find lovely eateries and beach there.
Last but not least, the host Alison and Paul are very friendly and helpful while giving you the privacy if you need.
So if you are looking for a place near beach, I strongly recommend Alison's cottage.
