Guest Testimonials

We have had a fabulous week here at Sanderling Beach House. The house is in a wonderful location and is very comfortable. Our boys had a great time on the beach despite the lack of sunshing and I managed to read three novels (a holiday record!). The house has everything you might need. We saw seals out in the bay as well as a humming bird and red squirrel. All in all a perfect week despite the weather.

The cottage was everything we expected and more. It is way more than depicted in the website ad. the seclusion, beauty and natural setting were great. We hoped to return soon.

We had a wonderful week long stay at Black Point Cottage. Helen and the owners were very accommodating to our needs leading up to the stay and during as well. The location is amazing, and we loved having a spotting scope and binoculars to watch wildlife. The house is a good size and could have easily accommodated more than our family of four, beds are comfortable and the living room comes with a nicely tuned piano, which we loved playing.
