Great place close to gardens and hiking
This is a wonderful place to stay. It's clean, comfortable and located in a nice rural setting. The owner is a great resource for finding all the best local hiking trails. It's conveniently located to visit both Longwood Gardens and Mt. Cuba Center. Highly recommend.

GORGEOUS
Henry's place was immaculate and charming and felt incredibly luxe. It was spotlessly and obviously clean and the details that went into the space were clear.
The farm settings was so calm and peaceful and felt isolated despite the main house being visible from the doorway. Henry came to say hi and we chatted for a few and made me aware of his accessibility and then there was no need for anything else.
The bed was VERY comfortable. Climate controls worked flawlessly. The bathroom was so clean and practical, even for a tall person, and everything was solidly built.
The place is covered in local art and incredibly tasteful and well furnished. Nothing bare bones or "rental" about it. Nothing felt cheap or disposable.
This is a luxury stay and I will absolutely seek it out in the future if I visit the area.

This is a perfect place to get away from the city for a few days. We used it as a base to visit Longwood (10-15 minutes away) and Chanticleer gardens. Henry was a friendly and helpful host.
