| Oh my goodness, let me just start with "WOW" This beautiful cottage exceeds our expectations far beyond anything we could have imagined. Everything we could have possibly needed or asked for is here. This is our 3rd visit the island and by far, the nicest place we have been to. Being so close to Kagawong for Bridal Veil falls, Chocolate store, Old fashion candy store, nice sandy beach, and amazing Wed farmer's market. Enjoyed the scenery and wildlife and to ride our bikes on quiet roads stress free was a bonus. Thank-you so much Lee and Jon for creating such a welcoming place to stay.

| Jonathan & Lee Bird have created a beautiful, relaxing natural retreat.
The house has a modern, very clean, open concept main level..with excellent garden & water views.
The second level is a spacious master bedroom retreat with 2 comfortable queen beds, & ensuite bathroom.
The grounds are a impressive balance of landscaped flowerbeds..and the natural environment.
Both Jon and Lee are the best hosts..totally considerate, kind, helpful people.
My partner and I are quite careful where we stay:
After visiting the Nuthatch last summer 2017, and meeting Lee & Jonathan..we immediately booked for 10 days for July 2018.
Our vacation at the Nuthatch is now a very good memory...
Well done ...Lee & Jonathan
Best Regards
Martin
