The Garden Cottage is absolutely wonderful! It has all the facilities you could want with excellent kitchen facilities, nicely sized bathroom, washing facilities for clothing and lovely living/bedroom area. There were lovely touches such as a welcome basket with popcorn/treats in, a welcome folder full of tips/leaflets of where to explore in Seattle and also so many extras like a range of teas, coffee and toiletries. It also had a television with Netflix if you need it (but we were too busy exploring!). Kathleen was an excellent host and gave us all the information we needed quickly and made us feel very welcome.
The area the cottage is in was also really nice and let us explore a different area in Seattle. We felt we got to experience more of the 'real' Seattle rather than just the touristy parts, for example, we went to a local brewery pub with live music by local musicians, drank beer that was made in the same room we were sat in and ate the most amazing Thai food (ask Kathleen for the tip!) There were also options of water sports in the area or Alki Beach. It was also easy to get to the main touristy parts of Seattle as we loved exploring that too! We used the water taxi which gave us beautiful views (10 minute boat ride with a free shuttle to the pier which was about 5 mins away) and also there were many bus routes which got you into the main parts of Seattle quickly. We feel we got a brilliant mix of seeing a different side of Seattle and also were within easy reach of all the tourist musts! We would definitely book here again! Thanks Kathleen :-)
