Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maison est confortable, et très bien équipée. La piscine a été très agréable, notamment en fin de journée à nos retours de visites. L'environnement est très calme. La situation de la maison nous a permis de visiter Baltimore, Annapolis et Washington DC. Nous avons facilement communiqué avec Diana avec la messagerie d'Abritel.

Quiet Cottage

This cottage is very lovely. Clean and so quiet. The setting is beautiful. Host provides so many things. I just had to bring my clothes, makeup and hairbrush. She provided all the rest. This is my 3rd time back. I will go back again. Host was very responsive when an issue came up. Thank you for such a lovely experience.

Me and my family planned a last min trip with the kids. The price was on point and the stay was lovely. We had access to the pool and the kids really enjoyed themselves. Would definitely be booking again in the near future.

Cute little cottage

while renovating our home, my husband and I had to leave while repairs were being made. The cottage was very clean and neat and stocked well with toiletries. The location was very easy to find. There was a very nice swimming pool on the property and play area for small kids. I highly recommend this property for an enjoyable vacation.

VRBO REPRESENTATIVE PROVIDED TERRIBLE SERVICE. However, the property and host exceeded expectations.

The property is breathtakingly beautiful, no words or photos can do it justice. The home had many special touches to make it very comfortable. The pool, the gardens, and the views of the water, created an ambiance I’ll never forget.

Clean and serene

Our stay was beautiful. Small house but perfect for our overnight stay. Immaculately clean. Though we did not need anything during our stay, the home is on owner’s property and she was very nice in our brief interaction. Check out procedure was easy. Would absolutely book again.
