My husband and I spent a glorious week at Lesley and Ned’s beautiful cottage. Everything was so comfortable and perfectly appointed. The location was terrific; we could walk to the surprisingly great LA metro (we were in Chinatown within 25 minutes; downtown LA within 35). It was also easily accessible to beautiful hikes and the quaint and fun old Pasadena. Delicious restaurants and coffee shops were nearby (either walk or very short drive). Their recommended Chinese food place was so good, we went twice.
The cottage has a full kitchen so we were able to eat in and enjoy the beautiful setting. We spent each night around the fire pit and watching a movie on the cinema-like screen. Lesley did a great job of checking in on us (even getting us more coffee in the middle of our stay). Although the cottage is on their property, we never felt like we were imposing and they respected our privacy. We cannot recommend this place enough for anyone staying in LA. We hope to be back soon and thank you to Lesley and Ned for making our stay so comfortable!
