I needed a weekend away for peace and quiet, so I booked Amy’s cottage for my birthday weekend. It was PERFECT.
I was greeted with thoughtful birthday mementos made by Amy’s daughters, which was such a great start to my visit. I found an ice cold Topo Chico waiting for me in the fridge. The bed was firm. The shower was hot. When I went to sleep, it was quiet and pitch black. I watched a little Downton Abbey on the guest Netflix account, did a little shopping in Bishop Arts, and enjoyed some treats at Peaberry Coffee (only 1/2 mile away in Kiestwood Village shopping center). I laid down to take a nap and fell asleep watching the shadows on the walls from the sun and plants. I had a couple of the homemade frozen waffles in the fridge, and even took a hot bath using some of epsom salt underneath the sink. I need more of this in my life. It was perfect solitude, and I really, really needed it.
Writing this review makes me want to go back.
