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!

Cutest townhouse with a perfect layout for our 3 generations of family guests. The kitchen was well-stocked with thoughtful little extras like bottled water and a basket of snacks. Ivana was very responsive and helpful!

Homey Retreat in Kennett Square

My two sisters and I stayed at Ivana's place because we are from out of town and planned a visit to Longwood Gardens. We were very comfortable during our stay. It's cozy and has all the amenities you need. We each had our own bedroom and the beds were comfortable and the rooms are decorated very nicely. The kitchen has all of the supplies you need.We were there when it was cold and rainy, but the backyard would have been a nice place to sit and have a glass of wine if it was during the warmer months of the year. I would recommend staying here!
