The cottage was a cozy retreat from the busy city...warm, comfortable, and lots of room to spread out. Newly furnished, with plenty of cooking supplies to making dining in easy, they had a large do it yourself coffee and tea selection, with sugar and milk as well. It was great to come back to relax with plenty of hot water in their soaking tub at the end of a long day! Vera made sure we had everything we needed, showed how to use the tv and thermostat, and made sure we had extra pillows too. Loved it!
