“That Claremont cottage” is extraordinary: Provisioned with every high-quality amenity, plus sweet little unexpected treats (snacks! cookies! induction hotplate! espresso!); peaceful, lovely, easy to arrange & navigate, convenient to all of SoCal. SUPER comfy bed, shower, kitchen, wifi & parking. Kind, friendly, yet unobtrusive hosts.
I spent 2 weeks convalescing from an injury, enjoyed the good books, rested, then worked from “”home,” visited friends & explored Claremont:
- farmers' market with bread, fish, eggs, and chorizo & ALL the veg
- cute Las Posadas show by a youth dance troupe at Padua Hills Theatre
- home gardens, sculptures: baby tyrannosaurus & giant peacock
- flaky croissants & mini-quiche, next door to a cleaner who will wash your laundry, & delicious homestyle Mexican cafe
- glass & ceramics museums
- eucalyptus canopy with bark like jigsaw puzzles
- hummingbirds in manzanita at California Botanic Gardens; flutes on Luminaria Night
- Train to downtown LA!
thanks!!
