Biltmore get away!!
My husband and I and 2 other couples decided to do a quick long weekend getaway to the Biltmore. We chose this house for the views and space! We brought our English cocker spaniel, Pepper. The property was a great set up and worked well with our stay! It was about 1 hour from the โ€œPretty Place Chapelโ€ and about 15 minutes from the Biltmore entrance. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! It made our stay from Georgia wonderful!

Spring break
We enjoyed our stay at Royal Cottage! The location was great for mountain biking in the area and dining out. We had a place to safely store our mountain bikes for the week when not in use which was nice. The house offered a great outdoor area with pretty mountain views from the back deck or covered side porch with plenty of seating for everyone. The property's backyard is fenced but you must use the deck stairs off the back of the house and down to the driveway to access the gate into the backyard which was fine for our situation.

Beautiful sunrises!
It was wonderful to see the changing sunrises from day to day! The house is laid out very nicely. We enjoyed our stay. Ron, the property manager, helped us out many times. We appreciated it. Would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Darlene Witham

Host profile image
The owners were so excited to get transferred by their company to the wonder of the Blue Ridge Mountains over ten years ago. They started their family while living at Royal Cottage and enjoyed mountain biking, hiking, and the fabulous mild weather.

But, as careers go another transfer took them away from their treasured home. In order to preserve the house in order to return one day, they have decided to share it with vacation guests. Please make our home your home until we return someday.

Why they chose this property

The outdoor living space - AND the view!

What makes this property unique

Feels like you're in the country but only minutes from downtown Asheville.
