The cottage is beautiful with a great view. It's tucked behind the main house and has quite a few steps down to the cottage, so take that in to consideration if you have trouble getting around. For most people it shouldn't be an issue. Like all of San Fransisco it is on a large hill, but you can take the 22 bus and get dropped off very close to the cottage. We didn't have any trouble getting around, and the house is close to a BART stop so you can get anywhere you need to go even if you don't have a car. If you are visiting San Fransisco this would be a great place for two people to stay or three if you are very close.
