If you need a place that feels like home then stay here. The drive coming in from the main road turns into a gravel road so drive carefully. Upon entering the property you will take note to the fact that it is gated and is opened by a hydraulic gate opener. The importance of this is you know you’re on a property that is safe and secure. After you’ve entered the property and park your vehicle the cottage doors are within s few feet with wonderful views of the trees and ferns. Dennis also lives on the property and his home is next door to the cottage. You will be greeted by his two dogs which are angels and very well behaved. Do not be afraid of them. The larger one would greet us every morning as we would leave.
When you step into the cottage you are embraced by sunny ceiling windows as well as windows on every side of the place. A fire place is in the corner so make sure you take advantage of it because it does get chilly during the night. Also inside this cottage is all the amenities you’ll need from a fridge, dishwashing sink, stove and cabinets with utensils and cookware. Dennis provided purified water in glassware and I have to say it tasted very good. Please take note that there is no microwave.
The bathroom is pristine with 3 sets of lights. One over the mirror, another in the middle of the ceiling and then another over the shower. You’ll also take notice to the oversized shower head that sprays right from the center of the shower. It also has a hand held spray unit which you can change fo spray from one or the other, or both. We did not have any issues with hot water.
I am pretty articulate so I noticed the place was built very soundly and of high quality. The windows are very sturdy as is the rest of the place. Take some time to figure out all the electrical knobs as there are many different sets of lights for different parts of the room. If you decide to just hang out and not do much touring of the island there are two chairs on the deck you can just relax and it is facing the opposite side of Dennis house. This place is a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city life.
