WOW!

Our 6 night mini break was not long enough! We arrived very late at Aphid's Retreat to the most amazing smell drifting from the cottage, relaxing local music playing softly and the outside driveway well lit to show us the way. Stepping inside we found a plethora of treats and welcoming surprises, including a generous smorgasbord for our fur babies. When daylight came, we were able to see that there was a full fence suitable for small and large dogs which was a new addition to the retreat. We were traveling with 3 small dogs and a 7 week old puppy so any dog lover would understand how much pressure this took off us. While we spent our days on the back deck reading, eating cheese platters, cooking on the Weber and relaxing, the fur babies made themselves quite at home in the spacious yard.

Stewart and Nicole are fabulous hosts, their attention to detail and quality of products they supply from the breakfast basket to the furnishings, linen and towels etc. can't be beaten. Super host with the mostest! We loved every minute and will be back to stay in the future. We couldn’t have asked or expected more. Thank you SO MUCH for your hospitality and for the fence … the biggest gift of all was being able to relax with our dogs and play with them on a whim.
