Kathryn is not simply a host. She is a loving, kind and trustworthy friend. During our stay, my 80 year old father had a heart attack and developed pneumonia. To say that Kathryn and Kenneth went 'above and beyond' in their genuine and compassionate efforts to help us through this experience isn't enough. Both Kenneth and Kathryn showed loving kindness, empathy and a willingness to help in any way possible (and probably helped in ways I still am not aware of!). I have stayed in 5 star hotels from Paris to Kuwait, and her cottage ranks up there with the best. The cottage is beautiful, the craftmanship extraordinary and no detail was overlooked. The cottage is supplied with every item that you didn't know that you will need! Mahalo, Kathryn and Kenneth... and know that if you should rent her cottage, you are also making friends.
