About this property

Historic Cottage in the Heart of the Village

Welcome to Bancroft Cottage, a charming oasis in the heart of town. Stay in one of the village's original homes, built in 1824 and lovingly restored with modern amenities. From the fully furnished interior to the beautifully landscaped yard and patio, you'll find a relaxing space located within steps of shops, restaurants, the Farmers Market, the TJ Evans Bike trail, and Denison University. Truly the best location in the village!

We offer a unique setting for guests visiting Granville and its surroundings. You can expect a quiet residential neighborhood of historic homes, steps from dining and retail experiences as well as Denison University. The house has 3 upstairs bedrooms as well as a queen sized pull out sofa bed downstairs. 2 of the bedrooms have queen sized beds. The third bedroom has 2 twin beds. Full bathroom is downstairs with a 1/2 bath upstairs. Snuggle up by the fire inside the cottage during colder months, or relax on the patio surrounded by greenery when it's warm. No matter the season or reason, there's something to discover here.

A note about our cleaning protocol:
We employ professional cleaners to ensure a sparkling home for each new booking. We follow Airbnb's professional guidelines, including the following:
1. High-touch surfaces like doorknobs, remotes and light switches are sanitized between bookings.
2. We use cleaners and disinfectants that are approved by global health agencies.
3. Each room is cleaned extensively.
4. Extra cleaning supplies are provided for you, so you can clean as you stay.
5. Protective equipment is worn during cleaning.

Note that the Village of Granville strongly encourages maintaining social distance as well as the wearing of facial coverings in public spaces, including shops and restaurants.

*Small events permitted with permission of host and additional fee. Please contact host for details before booking.

*Beginning in June 2021, the courtyard and barn will be in use as part of a craft cidery. It will be a quiet tasting room/ winery concept. The cottage has its own private space, but the cidery courtyard can be accessed through the back gate if desired. We hope that our guests stop over to say 'hi' and enjoy a local craft cider in the barn or the courtyard. Let us know you’re a guest at the cottage for a free cider tasting flight!

*Chiminea is provided on the back patio. Please bring your own firewood/starters if you'd like to utilize. Thank you!

*1 night stays are welcomed Monday-Thursday. 2 night stays are required for Friday & Saturday bookings**

Bachelorette fun in Granville
This little cottage is located in the heart of downtown Granville, Ohio. It is within walking distance of all the restaurants and fun cool places to be and to hang out. The cottage itself is so beautiful and quaint - full of history, which we were not aware of until we got there highly recommend fun little place to go.

Extension of our home
The Bancroft Cottage is around the corner from our home. We had family coming in for a holiday visit and renting the cottage allowed everyone to have a bed. Some family stayed in the cottage and others with us. It is so well appointed and folks loved the proximity to the Cidery!

Home away from home
This is our second stay in the historic Bancroft cottage. The cottage is charming, welcoming, and comfortable. It was the perfect Autumn weekend. The owners have thought of everything to make you feel right at home in the lovely village of Granville.

As Always One of Our Favorite Places
We have been staying here for the past 4 years a couple times a year. We absolutely love everything about this vintage cottage house. The outdoor garden seating is quaint. There is a cidery behind the house called Seek No Further and we were able to sit outside in the backyard of the home and hear the band they had playing. It was an added bonus.
