“My girlfriend and I recently stayed at your cottage (Redstone Cottage). We just wanted to take a quick minute to tell you thank you! The cottage was amazing and was exactly what we were looking for; some peace and quiet and escape from city life. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. We took full advantage of everything the cottage offered, including the river bank, fire pit, fireplace, and even the labyrinth which we had never heard of before. The wildlife was fun to watch and fishing off the shore was a blast! Had a wonderful time relaxing and getting away from the city life. Your home is very beautiful and cozy. We will return. Thank you!”
