Alexis's cob cottage is idyllic. It was everything we hoped for and more! Just spending time here was like a balm to the soul. Every detail of space is exquisite. The atmosphere of the cottage really reminded me of the Danish word "hygge", which does not have a direct English translation, but means something like "the cosiness of the soul" mixed with "taking pleasure from the presence of soothing things". We can't wait to come back! Alexis's hospitality was amazing - she was so welcoming and happy to share more about the history of the cottage and more about Mayne Island life. Check-in was a breeze, the cottage is beautifully outfitted with everything you could need (a well-stocked kitchen and mini-pantry and delicious-smelling soap, shampoo, conditioner etc. in the bathroom) and the beauty of the cob architecture was truly uplifting and inspiring. But be warned: staying here may cause you to strongly desire living in a cob house permanently!
