John was very kind and accommodating. When I walked in there was a sign personally welcoming me and nice relaxing music playing. He has everything you can think of to make your stay comfortable. The outside areas are welcoming, relaxing, and quiet. So many little places to sit and drink coffee, wine, or read. I would highly recommend The Dickerman Cottage.
