The Garden Cottage, set in a beautifully tended garden, is always an aesthetic pleasure. Two elements I appreciated during this stay: the eclectic book collection on the shelf above the downstairs table; the chairs and table set under the huge fig tree, perfect for relaxing. The fig tree branches also create the sense one is perched in a treehouse when upstairs. Being more of a country mouse, I also value parking off-street in a neighborhood that feels safe.
