My time spent at The Cottage was a pure delight. It is so close to restaurants, grocery stores, and the centre of Asheville which makes things accessable and easy, however as you drive up the road to the property it feels like you are very removed from it all. The Cottage is a bright cheery space stocked with everything that you need and extras that make you feel at home. It is nestled among old trees and pretty gardens. I had a lot of privacy to relax and I was treated to VIP treatment from the owners Annie and Joe. There were no limits to their hospitality. I arrived late to Asheville because of flight delays and so it was dark and I got lost. Annie and Joe travelled 25 minutes to rescue me and lead me to thier property. They were very helpful and friendly and introduced me to many delights that Asheville has to offer but that i would not have found from guides or on my own. At the end of my three week stay I found myself not wanting to leave but I look forward to my return to this sanctuary next summer. If you stay here make sure you take a minute to enjoy the swing in the garden. Divine.
