Great family getaway

We stayed here for two nights with two kids and two dogs. The Carriage House has a great layout for a family trip, with three sizeable bedrooms that are well located away from the living room and kitchen. The outdoor space is great and there were flowers blooming all around the outside.

This property is a welcome respite from the busy vibe that comes from traveling. My family was in town for a wedding. We found the space to be very comfortable, well appointed and clean. The host has paid special attention to small details which makes a huge difference in comfort and atmosphere.The beds were comfortable; the space was private and safely off the street in a beautiful neighborhood.I highly recommend this property and host.

Cozy place to gather with friends

The property was easily accessed, with more space than expected - my fiancee and several of her friends stayed there the weekend of her bridal shower and they loved having the space to be together, have a cozy dinner, and chat.

Great place to stay! We were in the area for a family reunion, and this home was conveniently located and perfect for us. We enjoyed the beautiful, quiet setting. The 3 bedrooms upstairs had multiple beds with very cozy linens. There are 2 luxurious bathrooms, a handy kitchen with everything we needed, and a livingroom with lots of seating. The home is beautifully decorated and very clean. Check-in and check-out couldn’t have been easier and wi-fi is available. All in all, we’d highly recommend this place!

Great Weekend!

Had a great weekend at the cottage! Sheila, the owner was very responsive and communication was great! The cottage had plenty of room for our family of six that was in Philadelphia for an event. It was such a great alternative to staying in the city yet very close to visit the city for the event and sightseeing. Very clean and had all the amenities that we needed!!

About the host

Hosted by Sheila Shalev

Host profile image

I am a mother to 4 adult children, I enjoy the outdoors, tennis, golf and soccer. I am a property manager and work out of my home which is the main house on this property located on the same grounds as the carriage house.

Why they chose this property

The carriage house is located an a 4 acre estate and was once part of the grounds to the original Radnor Hunt Club over 200 years old. The Hunt Club still exists but was moved to a larger area off of Route 252 in Berwyn. The beauty of the woods and charm of the main house and carriage house made this an easy decision to purchase. After living in the main house for 8 years we decided it was time to rent out the carriage house and let others enjoy the serenity and beauty of the area.

What makes this property unique

This property is located against a hill filled with trees and an acre of trees along the street in front of the house provides the serenity and privacy that one needs while on vacation or returning from work. With plenty of private parking one can enjoy a stroll along the long driveway or sit on the porch and enjoy the outdoors. We are also a short drive to a few parks and a dog park.
