The cottage is absolutely lovely and Carmel is an excellent hostess!! The space is very homey and sweetly decorated (we loved your butterflies Carmel!). Carmel is wonderful and welcomed us with scones and started a fire for us when we arrived. We unfortunately came the eve of ex-Hurricane Ophelia and decided to leave in the early AM to beat the storm, but would have loved to stay longer and could see how the cottage would be great for an extended holiday, especially for a family. Additionally Carmel was genuially concerned about us traveling with the storm upon us and very kindly offered to let us stay to ride out the storm. She even checked in on us later in the day. A true hostess indeed!!!
