The family room held all of us (5 adults) with room to spare around the fireplace and TV. Beds were comfortable in spacious bedrooms. We will be back for Thanksgiving!

On Friday night, the local park had a live band for us to enjoy from the convenience of the comfy lounge furniture in the sunroom. It's a close drive to major attractions (i.e.: Longwood Gardens, Vineyards with yoga on the lawn, pontoon ride on Marsh Creek Lake, etc.). The neighborhood is very walkable with pretty gardens to stop and enjoy. Morning chats with the neighbors yielded great gardening guidance! The kitchen has everything to cook/bake. We loved gathering at the ample dining table every morning and evening. Best treat was the quick two blocks walk to the local ice cream shop where service is "with a smile", free donut, and yummy flavors. Blueberry pomegranate was delicious! If you are a coffee lover, the kindred Farm coffee house next door offers a beautiful, restful spot to sip and enjoy fresh baked goods. Hosts could not have been nicer with great communication. Tenant, Fred, on the lower level was friendly on our arrival and unobtrusive/elusive for our entire stay. Our little group of four friends had plenty of room to spread out, call home, and read without intruding on each other. ##### Sherrill C. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary G.

Clean, beautiful views, location and roomy. Also the pictures that attracted us to it was right on...if not better. Thanks to the Michelle for the right amount of detail in making the stay a super pleasant one. ##### Michael C. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jonathan S.

The house is beautiful with many aspects that encourage relaxation and comfort. I would absolutely rent this again if the situation arises. ##### Jonathan S.

The property was just as described with plenty of space for our two families to relax and hang out between family events over the course of the holiday weekend. And the owners even decorated for Christmas which made it even cozier. The sun room is a lovely place to enjoy a cup of coffee while looking out over the Brandywine Creek before heading out for a walk on one of the trails close by or to the downtown area for a meal. The owners were great at communicating all throughout the process. Should we need a place to stay next time we are in the area we hope to return! ##### JULIA W.

The house was both vintage and completely updated with a great kitchen, large dining room, and many lovely gathering spaces. We especially loved the enclosed porch overlooking the creek. Morning coffee with my sisters out there was a highlight. Michele was great to communicate with, getting back promptly to any of my inquiries. We could not recommend this house more highly. It was even better than the pictures. ##### Susan B. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lester W. Apr 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Brandywine Valley Base Station "Downingtown Manor" was a good place to stay while visiting the attractions in this area. The house sits on top of a hill overlooking a park and Brandywine Creek. With excellent weather during our stay, we especially enjoyed the view and time spent on the sunporch. The photos and listing information are very accurate. But note that the homesite is more urban than the rural surroundings you might expect from the photos as the front of the house also overlooks a dental office's large, well illuminated parking lot. On the plus side it is conveniently located near the intersections of the main streets of "downtown" Downington. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. The hosts very responsive and helpful. Aside from his vehicle in the parking area, you wouldn't know that you share the house with a full-time tenant in the lower level. A good value and all good for anyone who prefers the charms of an historic, unique place to stay. ##### Lester W.
