Thank you, Sheila! I truly enjoyed having you!

It was an absolute pleasure to have you! Perfect guest!

Thank you, Sheila! It was a delight to have you and your family!

Hi Patricia! Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to write me your lovely review! The cottage is an authentic Cape Cod half-house dating to 1820. As you know, there is wide-planked flooring throughout with the steep stairs going to the second floor. I recall that it was very hot and humid during your visit. I hope the central air-conditioning made your stay more comfortable. All the windows have Harvey custom made storm/screen windows that are under 10 years old and in very good repair. It was unfortunate that the screen in the patio screen door had been ripped right before your visit and I was unable to repair it. My apologies..... The garden surrounding the cottage is a traditional Cape Cod lawn unlike the rest of the neighborhood which have manicured lawns and sprinkler systems. The neighborhood used to contain smaller cottages like mine with Cape Cod lawns, but times change and the traditional Cape Cod cottage is hard to find these days. I like to tend to the guest's garden before tending to the garden surrounding my quarters, and you are right, it could use a little bit more attention. And sometimes the weather doesn't always cooperate. Ditto with the painting project of the trim on the patio which needed attention. I hope you have a wonderful year ahead and hope to have you again! You were wonderful guests! Thanks again, Barbara

Ciara and her family were the most wonderful guests! They were a joy to have. So glad they had a great time. Would absolutely love to have them again! Barbara

Hello: I am so sorry that you had a bad experience.! Your text to me at the end of your stay said that you had a "fab time", so I was a little surprised at your review. The cottage is listed as an antique self-catering cottage at an extremely attractive rate. The photos accurately portray the downstairs bedroom. Perhaps you didn't look at the photos. The bed is a Victorian era iron bed without a box spring, so it does have some give. The sofa has provided many guests the perfect place for an afternoon snooze. I'm sorry you did not find that so. As I had explained to your husband, I had put polyurethane on the floors myself, but because of the humidity it colored the floor so that it appeared dirty. I can assure you that the cottage was and is professional cleaned after each and every stay and the floors were spotless! As far as the stairs going to the second level, this is an 1820 cottage and yes, for that era the stairs are steep. You mentioned in your review that there are no handrails. There are indeed handrails in the form of a nautical rope that is secured to the sides of the wall. I don't know if you went to the second floor, but if you did you would have used the rope handrails. You will find this type of handrail in many European homes as well as coastal homes here in the US. It is a very popular decorating item. In the listing, it clearly states that no towels are provided, but I could provide them at a modest cost. I mentioned the towels when we had a conversation on the phone prior to your arrival, but you said that you would supply your own. As far as making beds, most self-catering cottages do not even supply sheets let alone 100% cotton sheets, freshly laundered. The beds aren't made because this is a self-catering cottage and I have discovered over the 20 years of renting the cottage people prefer to make their own beds. As I had mentioned to your husband upon his inquiry over maid service half way through your stay, the cottage is not a hotel. It is a very comfortable, affordable, extremely clean cottage for people that would like a real Cape Cod experience in an authentic antique Cape Cod cottage in a beautiful neighborhood with central air conditioning, wifi, etc. I think this cottage was perhaps not a good fit for you and your husband and you would have preferred a hotel that had the typical hotel amenities that a self-catering cottage does not. Again, I am so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay.

Helena & Pal: Thank you so much for your lovely review. Your time in writing a review is very much appreciated! I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay. In response to your concern over mosquitos at night, a mosquito control system has been installed so guests will be able to enjoy the Cape Cod evening air on the patio! Hope to see you this year! Barbara

Thank you Lynda! I so enjoyed having you and your mom! You both were wonderful guests! Yes, it is a modest sized bedroom with a full sized bed. The house dates to 1820 and that bedroom was called a “borning” room.

Hi! I am so sorry to be so tardy in my response to you. I am so happy that you had a nice time! You were great guests and a pleasure to have stay at the cottage!

Thank you, Paul, for taking the time to review the cottage. You and your family were a joy to have! Although the cottage is a traditional Cape Cod cottage, I hope you found the central air conditioning welcome in the heat and humidity that the Cape experiences in the summer! I hope you come again!

It was great to have you and Samantha stay with us in September. Thanks for sending your comment!
