Ellen is a champion of hosts! From her welcoming gift of homemade bread and cookies to purchasing and INSTALLING baby gates on her stairs, she and her family amazed us and warmed our hearts. Her home is a beautifully restored cottage with all modern comforts and fully equipped kitchen. We were profoundly comfortable and tempted to stay right there in the cottage enjoying the marvelous outdoor grilling and dining patio and Ellen's exquisite gardens, but Ellen's detailed information about area highlights did manage to tempt us out to explore. We definitely look forward to returning!
