We stayed in the green cottage, Cuddle Doon, which was extremely clean. While the cottages are not luxurious, they are a good value and are well equipped: there is a microwave oven, full stove with oven, full fridge, coffee maker, electric kettle and teapot, dishes, cutlery, dishsoap, dishtowels and dishcloths. We loved the little screened in porch, and enjoyed coffee there in the early mornings. Every cottage has a charcoal grill and picnic table, too, a nice touch.
Though small, the bathroom was well maintained and spotlessly clean: no traces of mold, and toiletries were provided, including a hair dryer.
The beds were a *little* hard, but we were comfortable enough, and the bed linens were lovely and fresh.
We had our two pomeranians with us, and the cottage was very pet friendly, even including pet waste bags for assisting in cleaning up after the dogs. The rural location was great for walking them; they had as much fun as we did.
There is a small lake on the property, with row boats available to guests to use. Bike rentals are also available on site, as well as a coin laundry in the barn.
Glenn, our host, answered all of my pre-arrival questions quickly, and was on site at the inn to offer advice on what to do and see, and was very helpful in offering advice on where to dine as well.
We loved being out of the tourist mainstream on PEI, but everything is a relatively short (and gorgeously scenic) drive from here. The Confederation Trail is just a three minute hike from here, the Cape Bear lighthouse is about 7 miles/11km away, and the Point Prim lighthouse is about 25 minutes away. It is a short 20 minute (or less) drive to the Wood Islands ferry over to Caribou, NS, which was very handy, as Cape Breton was the next destination on our trip.
Be sure to come equipped with insect spray and repellent, as mosquitoes abound during the PEI summers.
