Fantastic location

The Cottage gave us the flexibility to visit and host family and friends on short-notice without imposing on anyone. The kitchen is well equipped and the open living space very comfortable. This location in Kennett Square is really special, with restaurants, shops, and art, all within walking distance. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back to explore the area more next time.

Charming House with All the Amenities

This little house was beautifully decorated, and our older kids loved the loft feature. The beds and linens were comfortable, the kitchen has everything we needed, and we appreciated the details like lots of ice in the freezer and fans in the bedrooms. Many restaurants and shops in easy walking distance, and we spent an afternoon at Longwood Gardens. Great spot for a little getaway!

Impeccable Cottage

We loved everything about this charming cottage with a white picket fence and cottage flowers outside. The interior is all new with a beautiful kitchen full of fine dishes, glassware, and everything you need to make your stay fabulous (including some interesting books). It is spotless which was so appreciated. It’s a block from the heart of town with lots of shops and restaurants. If you walk along the alley, it dead ends at the main street of town. There is an off-street parking space next to the cottage. The cottage is surrounded by so many amazing places to visit! It’s a great area and I couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else. The hosts are extremely nice and responsive. Everything was perfect!

This was our first time staying here and we loved it. The cottage feels like home, rather then just a place to stay. It was so thoughtfully arranged and had everything we needed. Silvia was quick to respond to questions and so very thoughtful and kind. The location of this cottage made our trip to Kennett Square even better. We were able to simply walk to get coffee, food, or just stroll. Whatever you can't walk to is just a short drive away. Everything was perfect and we can't wait to come back!
