This place was adorable and perfect! It had absolutely everything I needed and I was very grateful for such a thoughtfully put together space. Thank you!!! ##### Holly B. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathleen A. 21 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Perfect in every way! We had a fantastic stay in this truly elegant space. The host was so kind and helpful. The location is in a lovely, tree lined street that is just minutes away from the highway but you honestly would never know it. It is close by the lovely towns of Media and Swarthmore with plenty of cute shops and restaurants. The space was immaculately clean and tastefully decorated. It appears to be very recently renovated and everything felt so new and clean. It was very well stocked with high end supplies. The beds were very comfortable with cozy soft bedding. We slept great. But, the best part for me was the spectacular gardens on the property. Everything is so well kept and just gorgeous. The little table on the porch is perfect for morning coffee in the garden. We will definitely be back! ##### Cathleen A. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ---
