About this property
Private Suite w/sitting room in the heart of Brandywine Valley
Seeking a romantic getaway or respite from a long work day? You'll love relaxing "at home" in your private 1 BR suite. We are located in a tree lined quiet community. Convenient shopping & restaurants are within walking distance. Short & extended rentals for business travelers or those relocating. Minutes from historic Chadds Ford & the scenic Brandywine Valley, plan to tour our Wine & Ale Trail, hike our greenways or experience the many duPont Chateau's with their glorious gardens & grounds. Though the suite is connected to the rest of the house, a locked door gives you constant privacy. The space has separate entrance with en suite full bath and adjoining sitting/working area. Feel free to enjoy our lower level garden patio. You can walk through our back yard to a nice walking path around our town center, ponds and fountains. We enjoy the company of those who wish to interact and respect the privacy of those who don't. We are available as needed, on site to provide assistance to make this your perfect stay.

Nice central location close to everything, cute little side apartment with all the nice decor touches, clean and comfortable, a great neighborhood, private stay, and best of all the hostess provided very personable extras. Highly recommended!
We were comfortable throughout our stay. The hosts were highly effective in providing for all our possible needs. They even went out of their way for us by providing items for a light breakfast. We highly recommend them.
The unit is exactly as described. Very nice place. The owners were very thoughtful from a welcome note to refilling the coffee K-cups. We would definitely look this place up again if we come back this way.
Cheryl and Don were absolutely amazing! The property and location were beautiful. The house was clean and so "home" like. Very organized and peaceful. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to the area! Plenty of shops and places to eat nearby
This suite was easy to find very welcoming. We were impressed with the cleanliness and the attention to detail.Greeted with everything you need for a comfortable stay, we appreciated the hard cooked eggs and homemade muffins for breakfast. Coffee and tea too. There is a welcome binder explaining the steps used to clean between stays. Terrific! Also in the binder you will find the history of Brandywine Valley as well as sightseeing information. We would highly recommend this suite and definitely stay again.Thankyou Don and Cheryl for a wonderful stay.
Truly one of the best places I’ve ever stayed as a solo traveler, and I can see it’s ideal for a couple as well. Top marks all around! Nicely appointed and roomy suite in a beautiful neighborhood where I enjoyed walking in open greenery and to nearby shopping. I’ve never felt more “at home” on the road.
My stay was absolutely perfect! Such a cute and comfortable suite to relax in with so many thoughtful little details, an excellent spot for a weekend getaway.
We loved our stay here. Cheryl and Don are gracious hosts and left special touches like muffins and hard boiled eggs for our first breakfast. The area was located in a great area with easy access to many great historic sites. I would love to stay here again and do another visit to the Longwood Gardens.
A great place! Our host was welcoming and attentive. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. All of the touches really made the place feel like home. The location is quiet and peaceful, not too far from attractions. Highly recommended!

Definitely would recommend such a comfy & cozy stay!
Nice accommodations, convenient location and friendly hosts. Perfect for our Longwood Gardens Christmas trip. Would highly recommend and would stay there again!
Suite was perfect, clean and in a beautiful neighborhood. The host was wonderful and left us delicious blueberry muffins for our first morning there. We came for Longwood garden, it did not disappoint. Plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby.
Everything was perfect. Cheryl and Don have made this a calming oasis that feels like ‘home.” It is meticulously maintained and every need is anticipated. We had 3 days of beautiful snowfall and Don made sure we had a safe path home. Can’t wait to return in the spring.Maureen CookSt. Cloud, FL
Nice, quiet property in a beautiful neighborhood. Felt very safe. Comfortable bed. Heat worked wonderfully. Internet was good. Host left goodies for us in the room which were very thoughtful and yummy! Location was close to so much shopping, restaurants, etc. Short drive to Longwood Gardens. Would return for a future stay.
The perfect stay in Wilmington Delaware! I would highly recommend othe couples staying here....

About the host
Hosted by Cheryl and Don Martin
Delaware has always been home to Cheryl. Her adventuresome spirit though is quick to lead her off the beaten path. Whenever opportunity arises, she is ready to go. She readily keeps a small bag packed with the bare essentials at all times. Cheryl has always juggled her love for the water with her love for the mountains. As an active member of Fleet 106 for many years, she crewed for HOBIE 16's and 18's in regattas up and down the east coast and on the national circuit. Her love for alpine skiing lead her to becoming a ski coach and instructor for 12 years in Killington, VT. Cheryl is always dishing up some of her fantastic gourmet recipes for her family and friends and eagerly shares her tried and true techniques with anyone willing to share a glass of good wine and stay in the kitchen with her as her sous chef. Her love of fine food and teaching lead her to enrolling in cooking school and eventually teaching and directing her own school, La Chapelle. Cheryl's professional background is in Nursing with a focus in Pediatrics and Home Health Care. She is outgoing, engaging and comfortable with all kinds of people and looks forward to sharing her interests and home with you. Don's passion for music lead him to a career in Music Education. He served in the Delaware National Guard 287th Army Band for 6 years. As an accomplished jazz musician, he was asked to lead the Brandywine Blazer Jazz Band and accompanied them on a good will tour through central Europe. Over the years he has had the privilege of performing in many nationally known big bands, the likes of Bob Crosby, Guy Lombardo and Tex Beneke, the original Glenn Miller Band. Don loves a good conversation, gardening and live theatre.We enjoy sharing our home with others and meeting new people. As lifelong residents of the area, we can provide you with suggestions for "what to see & where to go" while you enjoy your stay in our home.
