Cozy Cottage

The cottage was very cute and cozy. It is beyond pet friendly and the fenced yard is big plus. Loved the two en-suites. Plenty of big fluffy towels and all amenities including blankets and towels for the pups. Nice, quiet location. We enjoyed our stay!

This is everything I wanted my trip to Franklin to be. This place is located perfectly — near Main Street, close to a large grocery store and other tourist attractions including the Lotz House. Wonderful response from the host and so kind to allow pets. Would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Deborah Brannan

Host profile image
I'm excited to be your host at Battlefield Cottage. I don't live on the property but I'm close by in Cool Springs. I own a small pottery shop in the historic Factory of Franklin
I adore Franklin for it's friendly people and small town feel. I don't ever advertise this property on Craigslist. If you see it listed there, it is not legitimate.

Why they chose this property

Battlefield Cottage stole my heart the first time I saw it. Located on a safe and quiet street close to everything you would want to do in historic Franklin. It has the charm of an older home but the addition of new bathrooms make it super comfy.
