This was a great place and we really wish that we had more than a few days in Denver to enjoy it. Jenny and Gio were super friendly and helpful and patient with us. They were busy people but took out plenty of time to help us out and gab as if they had all the time in the world. Very relaxed atmosphere. We were enchanted by the gardens and spent as much time at the start and end of our days as we possibly could among the flower beds before heading out to tour.
The Highlands is a residential area and Mulberry cottage is in a diverse neighborhood where there are homes being built in a new style or old ones being re-done, as well as some older homes as they are. We saw several places starting gardens on the street and in their front yards. There are neighborhood restaurants within walking distance and we enjoyed being able to walk around on our first night after hours in the car. We had no trouble finding a free parking space right in front of their gate every day, which was great!
The walled garden that Gio and Jenny have created is like a magical escape and feels so quiet and private even in the middle of a neighborhood.
We found the cottage just perfect for the two of us and we spent most of our time out in the garden anyway. The cottage is equipped with almost everything you could want for. The bed is very comfortable and has shelf and light right at the head of it for reading or putting your watch or earrings before you go to sleep. They supply a tiny iron and ironing board, a little coffee pot and an electric kettle, as well as all of the amenities described in the listing. They even leave you bath-robes, which I loved! They think of a lot of little extras like listing the area eateries with addresses and the distance from the house in blocks. They leave lots of info on Denver and the area. The leave a little dish of chocolates to welcome you. This was such a warm and happy place that we would love to go back someday.
