The space
We do ask our guests understand that this cottage is nearly 100 years old. As such, she's crooked and creaks and our outdoor patios and walkways have some lumps and bumps. If such things will be bothersome to you, we can recommend you to some more modern lodging that may be more to your taste. This is a non-smoking property.

This listing is only for the ground floor guest house apartment.

Guests at the Carney Cottage have the entire first floor of our carriage house to themselves as well as a parking space and a small patio.

Other things to note
We think we've thought of everything but please do not hesitate to let us know if you need anything at all!
