Comfortable Cottage

My sister and a friend stayed at the cottage and explored antique and thrift stores. Great location for food and shopping. After a full day of retail therapy, we relaxed and played cards on the beautiful dining room table. The owner has a true gift for decorating and the house was very clean. This is our 2nd time renting there and look forward to a 3rd.

Home Away from Home

We stayed here for our daughter’s graduation from basic training, and when we brought her to see it, she said, “It’s the first time in months that I’ve been in a place that feels like I’m actually home.” Indeed, it’s adorable and comfortable. The owner was also exceptionally accommodating and kind.

Charming "English" cottage

The home decor, cleanliness, privacy and serenity was delightful. My daughter immediately felt right at home and we were able to rest so well at night. I will definitely book this cottage again the next time I am visiting the area.

Family Time

Would highly recommend anyone who's looking for a "Home away from Home" atmosphere to consider this cozy Cottage. My family and I were in the area for a military graduation and it provided us with our own space to chill for a few hours before he had to return to Base. High Five!!!!!

I loved the cottage, the host responded quickly and it was easy to book. Everything I needed was there, and I had a wonderful stay!! I gave it 4 only because there was really really musty smell throughout the entire house the whole time I was there, it smelled like a Goodwill store. I understand there are a lot of antique books and furniture there, but the smell never left even after using spray and trying to air it out. All the bed sheets and towels smelled like it too, I couldn’t escape it. All my clothes and hair kept the smell and it was noticeable to others. Embarrassing. I have severe asthma, but thankfully that was unaffected. Aside from that, thank you for a wonderful stay.

The best stay I've had in such a long time

The property is gorgeous! The backyard is like a fairy garden and is fenced in. There are little touches everywhere that are just gorgeous. The light that comes in during the day is so pretty. if there was one downside, it was the storage there is a lot of storage there. It’s just that’s already got stuff in it, but that was so insignificant compared to this day itself, and the host The host was absolutely incredible. She was so attentive and accommodating. I really have not met a nicer host in my entire life.
