While it has a romantic feel to, it is at the same time very practical for family with young children or for family with teenagers. Because we are grandparents a toddler and babies, we have a few items that make it easier if you travel from afar ( porta-cribs and high chair etc... see photos)
The House:
Bright dinning room with beautiful DWR glass table opens to a large deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee, a great book with tea or an evening glass of wine.
The kitchen is very well appointed. If you can't find it you don't need it:). Bar/table with two stools where one can talk to the cook or hang out while making a nice dinner.

For Chocolate lover, Sweet 53 in the building next to the farmers market makes chocolate equal if not superior to the best Parisian Chocolaterie ( I can say so because I am French:).

Summary: This is the second time we have stayed in Joelle and David's cottage and both times have been very enjoyable. The cottage is clean and very well maintained. We did have one problem with the plumbing in the kitchen sink while we were there but David had someone out right away and had it taken care of. The location is quiet and very convenient to down town and the coast.
