Historical Charm and Style
This cottage is a GEM. It has historical significance that the owner has preserved beautifully. The artwork is an arrangement of original pieces painted by the owner who is a very talented portrait artist. So much thought and care has gone into the experience, from the pantry to the bathroom in terms of items to make a stay more comfortable and beautiful.It's both charming and historical, as well as modern and convenient.
