This is beautiful little gem of a place. We stayed for a week for a conference at the Seminary in San Anselmo. This was an ideal location, quiet, sunny and super comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone for a peaceful retreat. Kitchen is very well equipped and beds are very comfortable. The space is beautifully arranged, can’t say enough about our time there.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was perfect, with beautiful premises that were impeccably clean and equipped with everything we needed. Check-in and check-out were a breeze. Its location was ideal for our trip, making it easy to access everything we wanted to see. We look forward to returning in the future, hopefully with better weather to enjoy the lovely gardens and deck!

Sweet Cottage

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful hideaway. It was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the easy access and close to a fabulous grocery store yet tucked away from the hussle and bustle nearby. Great access to easy walking trails and great restaurants.

Our stay in Kentfield

We were two grandparents here from Mlps to attend a high school graduation. Lovely grounds, spacious living space, shower very tight, very good bed and quiet night sleep. We were very satisfied and would stay there again.

It was wonderful hosting you two James! We get a lot of grandparents :) I’m so glad you enjoyed your stay. About the shower: The good news is that we are planning a full bathroom and kitchen renovation starting in October! So no more small shower, in fact a nice large shower/tub combo. Guests starting in 2025 will get a beautifully renovated cottage! We’re very excited and pleased to offer this.
