Lovely cottage. Very peaceful and quiet.

This cottage has everything one needs for a lovely get-away - full kitchen, bath, king bed, wood fireplace. It is even cuter than it looks in the pictures. There is a little door off the kitchen that goes to a small private patio with a table and chairs on the west side. We went out there to look at stars after dark. For walks, although it is beautiful country, the main road has no sidewalk and is fairly busy. Otherwise, the location was very good for all the places we wanted to visit.

Had a great stay and the cherry on top was the abundance of little snacks in the refrigerator.

This was my 2nd stay at the Storybook Cottage. It's far enough from Julian to be quiet, but close enough for quick trips to town. The cottage is well supplied with amenities, even fresh eggs and muffins. The cottage is cute and comfortable, I highly recommend it.
