Staying in a 200+ year old cottage
Set on a lovely lot, this small house is spacious and has two porches. The kitchen and baths in the original part of the house have been updated (the upstairs bathroom has a hand held shower head but there's no shower curtain and you have to be short to be able to stand up); the original living room has 19th century charm and is quite dark--but with some lighting. The more recently added living area is light and comfortable.
When we arrived, one of the porches and the living area were dank and, over the next few days there were many large fruit flies and a few spiders. Although there were new windows and screens in most of the house, they weren't clean.
The stairs to the upstairs bedrooms are a bit hazardous but there are good handrails.
We really enjoyed all the nearby venues and events. Grace, the host, was responsive when we discovered that there weren't any potholders, and delivered a couple to us. Although the house is just off a fairly busy road, it was quiet and we all slept well.
