Wonderful weekend getaway

My friends and I stayed here for a girl's weekend. It was really a perfect stay. The location is great for walking to shops and restaurants. The house is so cute and beautifully decorated. There were so many little details that made us feel we were somewhere special--the kitchen had coffee, tea, and snacks set out for us. The bathroom had nice toiletries and we had plenty of towels for our group of five. The backyard patio looked very cozy and is set up for relaxing in privacy. We loved it!

Just Perfect

This beautiful row home is within walking distance of Kennett Square downtown. The place itself is adorable! The pictures do not do it justice. I spent a weekend here with my sister and my daughter. We were attending a wedding in nearby West Grove. Ivana is such a great host. She responds immediately and had everything ready, including lights on, for our after dark arrival. The backyard was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon chats. The bedrooms were comfortable and we slept well. The artwork is eclectic, quirky and really fits in with the decor. We could not have had a better stay and will hope to come back again. Kennett Square is such a cute town with good restaurants and shops.

The home was so charming, very walkable to shops, restaurants.

Walked up to shops, the people were very friendly. We were fortunate to be there for the 2nd Thursday of the month when all the restaurants had tables out on the Main Street. Music, good food and fun. We went to Longwood Gardens, beautiful of course.

2nd stay- not the last!

2nd time staying here. I would not stay anywhere else in Kennett Square. The house is so cute, clean and within walking distance of downtown. We were 4 adults attending a U Delaware graduation and it was an easy 25 minute beautiful drive to DE. IVANA is a stellar host. So responsive. We took a red eye fom AZ and arrived at PHL at 6 am. Ivana went out of her way to allow us to check in before noon! That never happens! We will be back!

Love the place and would stay again! Surprisingly cute and so much to see in the decor of the home. Communication was quick, precise and detailed! 3 bedroom and 1 bath was perfect for our group of 5. There was a small porch for outdoor seating. Thank you for the stay.
