Sophie was wonderful, even checking we made it through an ice storm!The cottage is fantastic, very cozy, quiet and has everything you need. It is also two blocks from downtown Elora. Definitely stay again sometime
Great location for winter or summer travel. The space is perfect for a couple and has everything you could possibly need. Communication with Sophie was amazing. She often reached out to offer advice/provide details without being asked. You can see and feel the pride she takes in hosting.
Very nice studio with beautiful gardens. It's a perfect location within walking distance to the town. Very clean and owner is very accomodating. I would stay here again.
The entire stay was wonderful, the studio was exceptionally clean and cozy. Being so close to the downtown area allowed us to walk everywhere and really enjoy Elora.
Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful studio apartment that was extremely cozy. Perfect for a nice quiet getaway.
We had a awesome stay at the Studio apartment which had a fabulous shower and everything you need in the kitchen and bathroom. Relaxing space inside and outside the studio. We enjoyed that it was within walking distance of a park to walk the dogs and restaurants, coffee shops and food shopping.
Sophie and her accomodations are absolutely the best! Elora is in a word breathtaking....the environment, community, people. And Sophie provides the perfect place of solace to relax and take it all in. We love her! We love Elora! So this is "until we meet again"!
Sophie is a wonderful host. This was our second stay with her. Her coattage and the grounds are beautiful and the location is perfect for exploring the beautiful village
My family had an incredible stay. The studio was clean, artistically decorated and had everything we needed. It is a short walk to all the shops and restaurants. The garden and private patio area make the stay so relaxing. We hope to be back again soon.
a very nice, comfortable, cozy studio in a great location. It is close to restaurants, the main street in the village, a hiking trail and a lovely little riverside park. All the amenities are provided, including dog supplies, cooking supplies, a nice shower with soap and shampoo etc. Really enjoyed our stay and looking forward to returning in each season (spring, summer, fall and winter) in 2025!
The location was perfect, close to everything. Sophie was attentive to all our needs. The studio and the grounds were beautiful and the outdoor areas also wonderful for relaxing. We will be back!
This was such a beautifully quaint studio with everything we needed. Communication with the owner was wonderful. Check in and check in couldn't be easier. Elora is an absolutely beautiful little town that we loved exploring.

We loved our stay in the clean and comfortable Studio Apartment. A french press, hooks to hang clothing on, a shaving mirror, and small printed labels are just a few of the thoughtful details Sophie has included.
Definitely a welcoming space we will book again.
Sophie’s little cottage is absolutely stunning, even better than pictured. So many thoughtful details, stylish, immaculate, and very comfortable for a couple. A short walk to shops and restaurants, this is the perfect place to stay. The gardens are beautiful and we were happy to enjoy the afternoons relaxing in such a peaceful place. Communication with Sophie was great. Highly recommend this little gem!
Sophie, our host, was amazing! She has thought of every little detail which made our stay truly feel like our home away from home. Her property is right in the center of all that is beautiful, all that is community, all that is right about Elora! And yet when you enter and close the door behind you, or sit in the gardens, serenity and beauty are the first emotions you feel. She is an absolutely wonderful host and we will be back for sure! Thank you, Sophie!
The property was just beautiful. It felt so secluded and private. In the gardens we saw birds a chipmunk and even a cute rabbit. It felt like we where out in nature.Inside the studio was beautiful. The decor was very eclectic. The bed was very comfortable and nice bedding. The studio was spotless, very warm and welcoming.Sophie had pamphlets showing you what was happening in town and even let us know about the farmer's market that was on just across the street. Couldn't have asked for a better host. There if you needed her but gave you your privacy also. She has a book out for you when you arrive to give you the history of how she came to live in Elora and the journey behind it. Such a nice touch we thought and very inspiring. You can't beat the location either. You can walk to almost everything. This is a great bonus because as we noticed parking can be very challenging in town. Plus you get to enjoy the beauty of the area walking close up.We highly recommend staying at the Studio.Thank you for making our 40th Anniversary so special Sophie we will be back.
It was a beautiful room, clean, had everything you need in it. Parking was good. Very easy to get to stores, restaurants you could walk to and nice park across the street from where we live. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t the best so we were not able to enjoy sitting out on the porch. But was a quiet and restful weekend.
Another fantastic stay! The studio is just as special as the Victorian. Comfortable bed, amazing shower and a fully equipped kitchen. We especially appreciated the cozy outdoor spaces. Our host Sophie was so accommodating and friendly. This is a fantastic home away from home in the prettiest village in Ontario.

A wonderful property well maintained by a true super host. Within walking distance of almost everything that one would want to do or see in Elora.
From beginning to end, the accommodations, location, amenities, and especially the Host were just simply awesome. We were so grateful to be able to spend time there on our long-weekend getaway, and hope to return sometime in the future 💛
