The Country Cottage had everything we needed for our stay. It even had some bottled water, coffee, tea, and snacks. Some guest may want an ironing board or clothes steamer. The location was only two miles from our relatives home and not very far from shopping or restaurants.
We had someene in our party stay behind one day because she wasn't feeling well. Greg went above and beyond by checking on her and offering to go get anything if it was needed.
There are quite a few outdoor cats for entertainment while you sit outside. I believe some of the cats are rescues. We enjoyed watching the younger cats play and watching the cats follow Greg to the mailbox and back. That tells me that the cats know who really cares for them.
When it was time to end our stay Greg wrote us a very nice thank you card.

Very cute little bungalow for just my husband and I. is that The bathroom needs more areas to place our personal items. The Wi-Fi signal was too weak for my iPad, luckily I had great cellular reception to use my phones hot spot. Hope you like cats, you will be greeted by several!

Positively Perfect!
This was the perfect place for my husband and I! It was clean, quiet, cozy, and relaxing. This special place had everything we needed. The bed was so comfortable and a major plus, as we were there on a pretty big work assignment! We were really able to enjoy ourselves. Mr. Esteve and his son, Greg, were warm and welcoming and so very hospitable. We highly recommend this very comfortable and positively perfect cottage. We loved it and hope to return again soon!

Zen Retreat
I thoroughly enjoyed my ten day stay at the Country Cottage. The atmosphere was relaxing and everything in the cottage is comfortable. Especially the mattress on the bed. Wow! This is the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in away from home. Edward and Greg are wonderfully accommodating gentleman. As a single female, I always felt safe and secure. Everything was neat as a pin and all a traveler's needs were well thought out and provided for. I wish I could have stayed longer!

Spacious Rural Setting
Steve and his son Jeff work well as a team to accommodate any need or request.
