The Cob Cottage is a beautiful retreat. Alexis was very on the ball with all communication. We hitched a ride with some locals to get to the cottage but it's so easy to find. We were welcomed with plums, milk, butter, eggs and the famous banana bread. So delightful. There was also a stocked pantry with coffee, tea and granola (which I couldn't eat but looked great!). I absolutely loved the architecture of the shower. I walked in and was like this is a spa! The cottage is about a 15 minute slow walk to the close beach and a 20-25 minute walk to cute shops and local grocery store. We walked in to Miner's Bay and it took us about 50 minutes, but it was hot and we we walking slow. After that Alexis kindly lent me her bike so I could be a bit more mobile. The sheep are delightful and hilarious. They are very addicted to their sheep treats! I also enjoyed the chickens. After a week of lazing around in the hammock, Manny kindly drove me back to the ferry. It was a delightful stay, and hopefully I will be able to return to Mayne Island in the future.
