I stayed at the South Street Apartment and it was perfect. Location, decor and the friendly couple who take care of the property were wonderful. My son was playing in the senior secondary schools basketball nationals and while he was staying with the boys, I had the comfort of this apartment which had all the necessities at hand. I would...

These cottages are part of a community of restored 1800's miner's cottages in South Street. We stayed in Biddle Cottage, one of 5 properties in the street owned by this lovely couple. Knowing we would probably arrive after dark in July, they arranged for a neighbour to have the fire going for us and then rang to make sure we... More

We love the South Street Cottages and have visited them 3 times with our little dogs. [who are made most welcome] Charming decor in period style but with modern gadgets as well . Provisions left in the fridge. Owners are very friendly and helpful. Just a stroll into town. Lovely private courtyards that we found secure for our dogs.

Stayed in SouthHaven - the two bedroom two-level cottage. It was really lovely with all the homely touches and food in the pantry and fridge etc. Our 11 y.o. son loved the upstairs (main I might add) bedroom and claimed this for himself so he could watch tv etc to his heart's content and it was fun for him to...

What a gorgeous place to stay! We stayed 2 nights in Biddle Cottage and it was like walking into your own home. Very cosy, the wood fire was all set up & ready to go, flowers were in vases, wine in fridge, breakfast provisions, lots of extras in pantry (olive oil, balsamic vinegar, herbs etc), tablecloths, even safety pins, pegs,...

These cottages are cute! Spacious and equipped with all the amenities, including a wood stove and washer / dryer. The bottle of wine left at our door was amazing! Easy walk to all the downtown activities.

South cottages are just delightful, very clean fresh and well looked after. It was a very nice stay for our team who were working very long hours and were able to do some of our work in the cottages. Close to restaurants etc. and the management were lovely to deal with. All in all a very nice stay with above... More
