Had a great stay at St. David’s cottage! Remarkable location, close to downtown Philly and what a terrific Main Street just 2 blocks away in Manayunk. Lots of restaurants, bars, and specialty shops to choose from. The cottage was immaculately clean and Heather did a great job responding to our questions. Parking can be an adventure, but we got spaces within a block or two every evening. We highly recommend the property and would definitely stay there again.

Thank you so much! I love when people enjoy walking in Manayunk. In many ways, it’s like an old European city. We strive to make the beds comfortable!☺️

All the comforts of home!

We had a great stay at the cottage. It was beautifully decorated, fully stocked with kitchen appliances/cookware, the beds/sheets were very comfortable, and the ease of communication with the owner was great. We would definitely come back!

Walking distance to everything. Cozy place for a nice get-away. Quiet neighborhood right up the road from town. Rental requires ability to walk up narrow stairs. Highly recommend!

Absolute Perfection

We loved our stay in this beautiful historic home. It was just what we needed and it felt like an oasis in the countryside of England while being seconds from Manayunk. The cold water waiting in the fridge made our day. It’s the small courtesies in this home that made it so comfortable and welcoming. Great place in a fabulous location.

Lovely Townhouse in Manayunk

Overall great stay, I especially appreciated that they were flexible with pets coming. The only issue was parking which they represent correctly, it is just very hard to park in that lot. Also, bathroom sink was very small but otherwise great stay, would recommend

Property was not exactly as described. Comfortable beds. Great location. Would recommend. Only issue was parking. Free lot was full and couldn’t fit our larger vehicle anyways. Paid lot was expensive.

Performance

Our daughter was in an opera in the Venice Island theater and this apartment was a perfect place to stay. One should be aware and careful of the steep, winding stairs but I loved the location and the historical feeling to the place. I would highly recommend it.

Cute and Clean

The house was super cute and clean. We had a great stay, the only issue was parking. The free lot that we were directed to was more of a patch of grass that we had to drive up onto a curb to get to. I still definitely recommend booking but be aware parking might be rough.
