Coming back to the galley was great only fault that we found and nothing to do with the owners is the lane at night is quite busy and there are no pavements so risky if dark. The galley and the owners is very welcoming and kept beautiful, and very quiet. ##### Jane ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lorraine T. Feb 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful delighted to find the cottage is on an organic farm. Very quiet and relaxing. My fussy dog settled straight in. Friendly hosts, who live on site, making me feel very secure. America woods is a wonderful walk, just follow the footpath a few yards up the road. The entrance was a little tricky, as it is a farm track between two houses, but that just adds to the feeling of seclusion. ##### Lorraine T.

There was everything there we could wish for. The owners Pat & Bill were always helpful and recommended lovely places to visit and to walk our dogs. We were even able to walk our dogs around their fields which was a huge bonus especially first thing in the mornings and late in the evenings. It was so lovely to be in the middle of fields of vegetables growing. It was quite a wrench to leave and hopefully we will visit again next year. There is so much on the island to see and everywhere is so dog friendly. Thank you Pat & Bill. ##### Sue This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela Jun 5, 2019 #### We loved are stay it was like home from home in the middle of this organic farm there were lovely wa We loved are stay it was like home from home in the middle of this organic farm there were lovely walks and not far from the sea .

You will have to drive to walking destination with larger dogs though there is a field to walk your dog to toilet. Otherwise, everything was perfect and Pat is a lovely landlady who is very helpful :0) ##### Jennifer ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels.d178279.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [The Belfry](https://www.expedia.ca/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Belfry.h3976.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Heathrow Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Slough-Hotels-Heathrow-Windsor-Marriott-Hotel.h3830.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Oranjestad-Hotels-Renaissance-Aruba-Resort-Casino.h28399.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Mexico-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d117-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [El Cid Marina Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Mazatlan-Hotels-El-Cid-Marina-Beach-Hotel.h521987.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London-Gatwick Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Horley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Gatwick-Airport.h16918.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Burgh Island Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingsbridge-Hotels-Burgh-Island-Hotel.h34611055.Hotel-Information) > > [Millcroft](https://www.expedia.ca/Penrith-Hotels-Millcroft.h26994538.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.ca/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.ca/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels.d3963.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Hull Marina by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Hull-Marina.h10609.Hotel-Information) > > [Dreams Huatulco Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Maria-Huatulco-Hotels-Dreams-Huatulco-Resort-Spa.h889398.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to New York (JFK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/jfk/calgary-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Goffs (YHZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yhz/toronto-to-halifax) > > [Flights from Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/3963/flights-from-hamilton) > > [Flights from Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/31/flights-from-canada) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Las-Vegas.d178276.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Las Vegas Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas.d178276.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Punta Cana Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana.d601906.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Malaysia Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Malaysia.d108.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/109/Maldives)
