We loved our stay at the Victoria Lea cottage. We couldn't have asked for a better location for exploring Tryon. We adored the vintage charm of this mountain cottage and were perfectly comfortable with the modern amenities. Our hosts were lovely, and we look forward to staying here again.

Charming cottage near town

We throughly enjoyed our stay & Vana was an excellent host providing hiking and birding locations to explore. It is not often a cottage in the woods is so close to town that we were able to walk to restaurants and the Tryon Arts Center to see a show. We plan to be back.

Lovely and quiet location! The cottage was an adorable artiste’s studio built in the 1920’s. The only drawback was the walk downhill, but we were fine with this. The king size bed was very comfortable.

Beautiful cottage and amazing hosts!!!!!

The cottage is so well appointed and easy to operate inside - the hosts thought of everything anyone might need. We loved the historic nature of the place and Vana was the most gracious host as well as her husband who kindly helped us with our bags. The location is wonderful, so close to town you could walk! We can't wait to go back!
