I have a claw foot tub at home I never use because a shower is so much easier. At Meredith's carriage house, I looked forward to tub time. I'm going to change my faucet for what she has because it's so much more luxurious than what I have at home and now I'm going to use my own vacation tub. Don't be afraid of this aspect of the accommodations. My husband is French and totally used to this kind of bathing situation. If you need to, pretend you are traveling in Europe (without the hassle of learning a new language and with super nice people everywhere constantly asking you how your day is going). Also, much to said husband's perpetual annoyance, I always travel with my own pillow and spa robe. Had I taken one moment to ask Meredith if her robes were terry, I could've left mine at home. This is an especially nice amenity to have when you are at an Airbnb and housekeeping is not a daily service and in colder weather climates to use out of the bath or for lounging. Also, the off-site parking was a total breeze. The suggested street is not even a block away and we didn't have a problem finding spots a 30 second walk from the carriage house, even over a holiday weekend and in a full size SUV. Meredith was additionally kind enough to drop off some freshly harvested tomatoes and the best grapes I have ever eaten. What a thoughtful gesture, which really feels a theme at this lovely little spot.
