Our holiday in Wisteria Cottage

We loved this quirky cottage ! John and Arthur could not have been more welcoming or helpful, and we found the cottage very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The kitchen provided everything we needed to make our simple meals with bought things, and we spent 8 happy days exploring San Francisco and relaxing in the cottage in its garden setting. Very highly recommended.
