Why they chose this property
You feel like you aren't in the city when staying at The Sanford Sunshine Cottage. Surrounded by towering oak trees, in a quiet neighborhood, it is a great place to relax and have a good nights rest. Great award wining breweries and restaurants are just minutes away from the house. Stroll down first street and shop at some local, unique independently owned shops.
