There are many cottages to choose from in Cavendish, but most are on the main road so cars that pass are in full view which I'm sure can get noisy. Swept Away cottages are tucked out of sight, just off the main road so when my daughter was outside playing, it was nice and quiet. The grounds were big, and... More

we biked over from Halifax and stayed here Sept 8-11 with 14 friends. After touring the island each day we spent our evenings relaxing by the campfire each night. Our hostess, Heather, provided all the assistance we required. The cabins are very clean, well stocked and very affordable. We will definitely be back.

We loved Swept Away Cottages! The cottages are more spacious than they appear in the photos. We were initially concerned about fitting a family of four into a two bedroom cottage, but with the loft there was room to spare. Cottages are super clean and Heather and her team are very service oriented. She booked musical tickets for us, and... More

We recently stayed at Swept Away and were extremely pleased with the accommodations. The cabin excelled in four areas: cleanliness, location, preparedness (everything was ready for living/use), and service/support. The cabin was immaculate when we arrived and the house was stocked with many kitchen items, including coffee filters! The fridge was spotless, there was a grill and a large deck... More

We recently rented a standard cottage for our family of 4 and had an outstanding experience. We have rented at many of the spots in Cavendish over the years and Swept Away was our favourite. The cottages were spacious, clean & well equipped. The location and facilities are hard to beat in Cavendish. the pool was pristine, the games room... More

We chose these cottages from reviews on TripAdvisor and were not disappointed at all. The location is just perfect: not in the middle of traffic, yet close to everything. Very clean and everything was just as advertised. The children loved it. We would definately recommend these cottages.

We went to the Swept Away Cottages for 2 nights mid July. The location is fantastic, the staff are really friendly and the cost for laundry is great, $1.50 for a washing and $1.50 for drying. Close to Anne of Greengables, Charlottetown and other areas. We were delighted that they lent us a park pass for the beach area. Cavendish... More

It felt like our home away from home. The location is great, 2-5 min drive to the entertainment (rides), Shopping, restaurants, beach, etc. They have a pool, hot tub, fitness center... More

July 2010 - Just got back from PEI. We stayed at Swept Away Cottages for a week and would highly recommend this place to any family. Our cottage was very clean, comfortable and spacious. It included everything we needed and if we needed something, our host Heather was always there to help. The cottage is located on a side road... More
