I've wanted to come to PEI since I was a little girl and I adored this cabin! It is so beautiful and very in theme with the nature of this beautiful island place! The linens, colors, art, dishes, coziness is all top notch. We loved having this refuge to return home to after exploring. The kitchen and bathroom were well appointed and we felt very at home. The views and gardens are beautiful. I wish we could have stayed longer! Janet was a wonderful host and very welcoming. My one piece of advice for travelers is to coordinate arrival time and check in instructions before you get to PEI (signal isn't always the best on all the roads on island). Will absolutely be back to PEI and hope to stay here again!

Warm welcome from Janet . She has all the things you need for your family and more. Peaceful environment, beautiful rolling hillsides. Hummingbirds enjoying her hospitality as well. A must stay while you are in PEI time to unwind from your busy everyday schedules.

Overall great stay despite the weather I will recommend to check out the beach down the street

My wife and I stayed at Janet’s Irishtown cottage for two weeks in June 2023 and have been coming to this area for many years. Janet was a welcoming host, living next door but one would not know it. She kept the humming bird feeders on our veranda filled so we might enjoy their aerial antics. The cottage is off the main road and is quiet and peaceful with only distant road noise. The house is of recent construction and all the facilities work well. We liked the full-length bath and the three bedrooms that allowed family to visit. Cell phone coverage in the area is not great but useable. Janet is a keen gardener and there are views over her gardens to the large grass field to the north and the sea. The site exposure to winds keeps the bugs at bay. We hope to be back again.

Absolutely gorgeous home … with everything so comfy and cozy … can’t wait to go back again

We loved staying here! When we arrived, Janet was there to welcome us and she made us feel right at home. She is such a wonderful host - whatever we needed, she was more than willing to help! We had a wedding to attend and she was more than happy to take care of my mother's dog. The cottage was clean, bright, airy, spacious and comfortable. It was perfectly decorated with beachy themes. The cottage was equipped with everything that you would need. Washer/Dryer, games, appliances and cookware, utensils and dishes for food prep and lots of towels! There was a large loft space with adjacent master bedroom with a restful reading nook. The location was within 5 mins of the beautiful Cousin's Shore Beach and 7 mins to Kensington, which is much quieter than other areas on the island. There is a bakery - Willow bakery...YUMMMMM! 20 mins to Cavendish if you want to check out the amusement scene and only about 25 mins to the bridge. We will be booking again. It was the perfect escape that you are looking for!

This is a hidden gem, we really loved our stay, we were two couples and our two little dogs stayed here for two nights and everything was amazing. Janet was incredibly helpful and kind. Minutes away from cousins and thunder cove. We definitely recommend.

Janet’s place is sublime and her warm hospitality befitting of a long lost family member. Quiet with endless starry nights and easy to visit all that Green Gables has to offer. Her place was super comfortable and appointed with all the things needed to feel right at home.

My daughter and I so enjoyed our stay at the amazing accommodation of Janet's. The quietness was unsurpassed and we loved all the HUMMINGBIRDS!!!- the cleanliness was so impressive and hospitality so heartwarming. I would recommend Janet's little paradise to all - but not too many as I may never be able to get a week again LOL

Hostess met us showed us all around, even wanted to watch our dog while we went out to eat. Very friendly , beautiful grounds, all amenities were there comfortable beds. Only one suggestion it needs a screen door for the front door so you can leave it open and let breeze flow through, just a thought. Would definetly stay again and recommend it to anyone.

We vacation to the island every year and this was the best trip we have had thus far. This property is so beautiful and peaceful from the panoramic views to the hummingbirds that would visit each day. The property owner, Janet made our trip even more special by being so friendly and accommodating even taking care of our little dog Teddy who fell in love with her. We will definitely be back!

Janet was so welcoming and friendly! The house was comfortable and full of everything we could need. Location was very convenient for getting to lots of places. The nearby beach was cute and so close!

We really enjoyed Janet’s place. The house was super clean, bright and modern, with ample space for our family of 5. The town of Kensington just 10 minutes away was so quaint and had all the amenities you would need. Also there was a great, uncrowded beach just 5 minutes away. We enjoyed the beautiful gardens with hummingbirds visiting all day on the property.

Fabulous location! So quiet and peaceful! Janet was available for any questions and made wonderful suggestions for things to do!

What a beautiful spot to enjoy Prince Edward Island! You are handy to Charlottetown and Summerside. The views are amazing. The property is like out of a green gables story book, neat as a pin and beautifully decorated! We will definitely be coming back. Janet welcomed us like family. I wish there were 10 stars to rate this spot!

After arriving I had to go out and purchase cleaning supplies and start cleaning. Not what I intended to do on holiday and after paying the kind of money we payed. The place smelled like dog. The windows were never cleaned. There was leftover bottled & packaged food in the cupboards and fridge. Theres a leak under the bathroom sink because when i went to pull out a towel it was wet. I also bought my own towels because I didnt feel comfortable using the ones provided. I pulled a bowl out of cupboard and it had dried on cereal in it. The white couch in the livingrm needs cleaning. I purchased bed sheets to put over it so I could feel somewhat comfortable sitting on them. The place is not a cottage on its own, its more like a inlaw suite attached to the owners home. All the bushes in the gardens are overgrown on to the walkway and made it very difficult for me to help my 85 year mother to walk on the patio stones to the entrance. I would never go back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hillside Haven, and the host Janet is wonderful. The cottage was so clean, and in such a quiet & beautiful area. Wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you Janet! Sincerely, The McCallum Family

We had a very relaxing stay at this cottage! Nearby to a quiet beach and not far from Cavendish and Kensington! Highly recommended!

The space was good for our family of four, and the setting was lovely. Janet generously offered to provide company to our elderly dog while we were off playing golf - so much so that we think the dog started to prefer her over us! That was unexpected and very much appreciated.

The cottage was well stocked, well decorated, and perfectly sized for our family with two double beds and a single. Janet was very attentive and lovely to interact with. Highly recommended!

This quaint property is located on an idyllic piece of property within 5 kilometers of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. An easy distance for sigh-seeing in all directions and groceries and other necessities available close by as well. Janet is the perfect host; instantly available when needed but otherwise discreetly in the shadows.

Janet’s home is so lovely and perfect for a country get away. Nothing was far away, and Janet provided us with great suggestions for pottery, craft and food stops. Waking up to the beautiful sunrise on a cozy deck, coffee in hand and hummingbirds visiting. Doesn’t get better than that. Cousins Beach is beautiful and so close by. Janet was so wonderful to watch our boarder collie Fin while we went out for a dinner and a visit to Summerside. Thanks again Janet - we’ll be sure to recommend your lovely home to others wanting to visit PEI.

Thank you
