Relax in the hot tub (enjoy the outdoor furniture!) or sip a drink in the garden of this 1292-sq-ft cottage. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

As you settle into this 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental, you'll find a dining area and a BBQ grill. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper.
