Montague Inn is a lovely large home, very comfortable and well laid out for a family gathering. It is also ideally located a short distance from the ferry terminal and shops. It has a beautiful view from each room, upstairs and downstairs. The setting is idyllic west coast and we enjoyed our traditional game of Christmas day croquet on the lawn overlooking the harbour. From the time of our first inquiry, we appreciated Peter's quick responses, and this was certainly true when we had a little trouble finding the place in the dark. Larry who is readily at hand next door was a great enthusiastic helper and did a superb job of keeping us supplied with firewood for the big stone fireplace.
We love to cook and found the large kitchen very well equipped – great quality pots and pans, baking equipment, and bowls, and plenty of dishes and cutlery. The addition of a better set of knives, and wine and water glasses would be helpful to those who enjoy dining at home. The house is very well supplied – bedding, towels, paper, soap and shampoo, and cleaning supplies – all very thoughtful. As well, there are interesting books and a good selection of DVDs.
The house could use more attention to cleaning and the dishwasher requires repair but these can easily be rectified. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay at Montague and would stay there again and recommend it to others.
Thank you,
