Beautiful location on the bay, older home with plenty of character. We enjoyed our stay.

Both bedrooms smell of old linens & mattresses
and overall not pleasant
Basement had a strong musty smell
We ran fans & kept windows open
Front entrance needs a light & railing. Impossible to see where to step in the dark.
Lower Rear deck has a hole in it and also needs a proper railing.
Kitchen & living room were okay.
There is No Microwave, & the large couch is badly stained
It was not worth the money.

Staying at Cordial House for our first time visiting the island was the perfect location with a bay view! Christine has made the cottage a gem & has thought of everything to make her guests feel at home.
Also our first ‘red clay’ road experience which we rather enjoyed, as well as the potato & other crops in the area being planted in that red soil.
Cavendish beaches are so beautiful & just a short distance away.
Summertime in PEI - thank you

Great stay close to everything.
We had a great time at Christine’s cottage. The view from the front room and deck could be on a postcard.
It had everything we needed. The downstairs was an added bonus. With the dehumidifier it was dry, cool and comfortable.
A nice touch was the parking pass for Cavendish Beach left in the front table for our use.
Perfect for a couple, a couple with kids or two/three couples that want an excellent getaway.
We are already talking of going back.

Beautiful calm
This location was epic. The window looking over the water was stunning. It made for awesome views from sunrise to sunset. And, with the outdoor lights and bonfire pit, Cordial House can be enjoyed at night, too!
The cottage itself was stunning; every single item inside was thoughtfully placed. It was so quaint. A beautiful environment to make for a splendid stay.
Nothing but beauty and calm!

Jewel box of design and solitude on PEI!
This was our first time visiting PEI (or Canada, for that matter), and it was entirely due to finding this rental on Instagram. Cordial House was even more beautiful and gracious than the photos and glowing recommendations of previous guests assured us it would be. The host, Christine, is not only an exceptional designer and an expert in the best that northern PEI has to offer, but also is extremely kind and attentive to any questions you might have about the property/area. The home provides an excellent home base for adventures to many beautiful beaches, shops, and restaurants - easily accessible to all of those, but also a place of quiet beauty and solitude for anytime you just want to sit and enjoy a gorgeous home away from home.

Very private settings with an amazing view in the back yard. Lots of space to sleep.
I would rent again. It was a really good experience overall.

The cordial house was perfect for our ladies trip for the great Anne experience. The cabin was beautifully decorated and exuded charm and quirkiness. We loved spending our evenings eating dinner on the large deck and enjoyed the firepit as we watched the sun go down. Everyone is in love with this cute and fabulous cottage by the sea. Thank you Christine!

I stayed here with a few friends for a weekend and we were completely blown away by the beauty of the place and attention to detail! The weather was awful but we were happy to stay inside and enjoy our lovely little home for the weekend. We brought our own food for all of our meals and we found the kitchen wasn't quite as stocked with dishes as we were expecting but Christine was super helpful and brought us what we needed right away. And it was a pleasure to cook in the beautiful space!! We would definitely stay there again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in a perfect place!

Cozy, wonderful stay on PEI!!
My partner and I simply adored the Cordial House!! Even visiting in the off season, there was plenty to keep us busy with the house location being literally next to a national park. We've stayed on PEI a few times and this so far was our favorite location- easy to jump out and explore either side of the island. The property itself was just stunning. Located on a little bluff on the water, the house stares directly at a bay skirted by the beautiful Cavendish Dunes. It was also bird-watcher's paradise! In our short April stay we saw mergansers, kingfishers, cormorants, eagles, woodpeckers, and even northern gannets!! The house was the epitome of coziness. We were obsessed with the comfortable couch and shag rug in the main room- perfect spot to hunker down on rainy days. We'd definitely rent again!

Cordial House is picture perfect. My wife and I stayed for a long weekend and wish we had booked a month. Christine has captured the platonic ideal of "cozy". Everything is designed to please the eye, the kitchen is fully equipped, and the couches are overstuffed and fluffy.
Christine is an excellent host: generous, thoughtful, and easy to reach. We can't wait for our next visit!
Thank you, Christine!

The location of this spot can't be beat and I don't know what we enjoyed more, being inside with the charming decor or outside with the fire and view. Was super impressed with Christine and the property. Will be back!

Great location. Gracious host. Beautifully decorated with fabulous view from large living area. Lovely bedding and comfortable beds. Poorly functioning kitchen appliances.. Musty smelling lower level even with dehumidifier. Exterior of property not consistent with quality of interior, although fire pit in good condition. Park only in driveway or you will meet an unhappy neighbour.

I really wanted to love our stay at the Cordial House... but unfortunately I have to be honest about a few issues we had during our stay.
First off, Christine seemed very lovely and always responded to me quickly. The property is beautiful with a stunning view and the house is decorated well, very picturesque.
Unfortunately, I think that the "Instagram-worthy" nature of the property has overshadowed some of the basic comfort and cleanliness requirements. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean enough, but it was clear from the dust & bugs in the corners that the place had not been thoroughly cleaned in a while. We used the laundry machine during our stay, and there were damp/musty towels in the machine. There was also a fridge in the basement that filled the basement with a rotten smell. One of our guests also claimed to have heard rustling/mice in the walls at night.
The upstairs bathroom's light was barely brighter than a nightlight, and the shower has a window at chest-level with no curtain, which can be seen into by anyone in the front yard / road. The master bedroom has a large window with a beautiful view, but the sheer curtains meant getting up with the sunrise - whether you wanted to or not.
Overall, I certainly appreciate the appeal of the house for intimate get togethers and beautiful photos, but for the cost of the stay I would expect a little more. I wish I could give Christine benefit of the doubt, but some of the issues were too glaring!
