Charming and very comfortable cottage on beautiful grounds that is just a short walk into town.

The cottage is so well appointed and easy to operate inside - the hosts thought of everything anyone might need. We loved the historic nature of the place and Vana was the most gracious host as well as her husband who kindly helped us with our bags. The location is wonderful, so close to town you could walk! We can't wait to go back!

A very sweet cottage in a lovely town, Tryon NC. My friend is a fan of Nina Simone and that was the draw for us. However, we found beautiful waterfalls to visit and excellent shops and galleries to wander.

We enjoyed our stay. Comfortable bed, fun area to explore. The hosts were great.

We loved our stay!! Our host was so thoughtful, and anticipated our every need. A lovely charming spot with a wonderful collection of books. Poetry verses scattered throughout to make you appreciate your stay even more. The bed was extremely comfortable, and great water pressure in the shower. Thank you Vana. We would love to return!!

Very clean and well appointed. Close to downtown Tryon and convenient to all of our plans. Would love to stay there again!

We try to book Vana's cottage whenever we're in the area. Beautifully furnished with full kitchen and VERY comfortable king bed along with convenient location. Highly recommended.

The old cottage is lovely and so comfortable. The host added nice personal touches and was very welcoming. The location was great for us to attend a wedding downtown. We breakfast at a marvelous French bakery. Wished we could stay longer!

This guest house was just as advertised. Perfect for the 2 of us as we attended a Bluegrass festival at the nearby equestrian center. Bed was super comfy. Sidewall Pizza is nearby and that was a plus. We would definitely stay here again.

I've stayed in this cottage at least four times now. With all the traveling I do, this is still the most comfortable bed anywhere! The cottage is perfect for 1-2 adults and 1-2 (8 years+) well behaved kids (not a lot of space for kiddo energy). It's private, quiet, charming/romantic, and in a wonderful location with a GREAT book selection and Smart TV (Roku/Hulu, etc.). The cottage is perfect every time of year, but I prefer it in the fall/winter because I love the fireplace and the mountain view from the bed when the leaves have cleared a bit. The hostess is always fantastic. As far as things to improve, I'm going to offer the same comments I always do: 1) As the write-up honestly states, this is not for folks with mobility issues. I'm 41 with no mobility issues, but I'm overweight, and getting up and down those very uneven steps every day was treacherous, especially with luggage. Not a big deal, but if I travel alone again, I'll pack lighter! 2) The kitchen is well equipped for mini-fridge/microwave stays or if you plan to eat out, but it's pretty limited for cooking full meals based on what items are available for use and the fact that the oven doesn't work. I'm always hoping to find a fixed or new oven, or at least a toaster oven, especially during the holidays. The cottage screams make cookies here! 3) The ceiling fan still makes a LOT of noise and the skylight is lovely 50% of the time, but it really would be nice to put an electric shade on it so that people can nap (would also cool the place down in the summer without having to run so much AC). I'd pay more for the cottage to have these fixes/upgrades. Until next time!

Really nice cottage. We like to go up to Tryon twice a year and be close to town. Walking distance to restaurants. Comfy bed. All the things we needed in the kitchen. Thank you!

This historic handbuilt 1920's cottage was perfect for a girls trip to Tryon. The owner was beyond friendly and the cottage was well appointed.

My wife and I always try to stay in the Victoria Lea Cottage when in Tryon. Lovely cottage and furnushings and we love the king bed. Highly recommend.

We loved our stay in this cozy cottage. We were met by our host upon arrival. She, and her husband, were amazing. The cottage is so cute and well stocked (if you forgot anything, don’t worry… it is probably provided 🤗) . We enjoyed an incredibly peaceful stay with no outside noises. A quaint path led straight into downtown and many dining choices. I can’t say enough how accommodating our hosts were. We welcome the opportunity to return in the near future!

Vana is a wonderful host. She is thoughtful of guests needs. The cottage is conveniently located to downtown Tryon in a beautiful and peaceful area. The King bed is absolutely heavenly. My family and I hope to stay again in the future.

This quiet, clean, and comfortable cottage is absolutely perfect for 2 or a small family. Owners were super nice and could not have been more accommodating. Easy walk to downtown Tryon.

We greatly enjoyed the place. Very cute and love the windows and light in the building. Cutely decorated. The only suggestion would be a power strip of some kind close to the bed so we didn't have to unplug the alarm clock to charge the phone at night and use it for an alarm.

My family stayed in this lovely cottage over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was perfectly located near the picturesque town of Tryon. The home was spotless, the beds were super comfy and the owners, who live next door are delightful! We will be back!

Vana was so gracious in her timely responses and so thoughtful anticipating our needs. The charming cottage was a perfect little escape into the memorabilia of those who love and appreciate history, and treasure family ties! Gratefully, Pat Barnes and daughter, Pam Howard

Charming cottage

This Cottage is Charming and Comfortable, Elegantly Appointed with Biltmore Estate Bedding yet simplistic with attention to detailed in the Original Architectural Design. Love the provenance that it has stayed family owned since it was hand built as an artist studio. Perfect location, just up the hill from the Fine Arts Center, shops and restaurants of Tryon. You are right next to town but nestled in a quiet neighborhood. Fun star watching at night. Vana was wonderful with communicating information about our reservation.

We loved the cottage and the little town. Everything was clean and Vana was very accommodating and friendly. We will definitely be sharing our experience with others.
