Summary: The cottage was adorable and in a lovely private location close to town. It was a beautiful drive up the mountain from Newland but also close enough that if we forgot something we could run back to town quickly. We enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by trees but still being able to see the mountains in the distance. The kitchen table and desk areas were very helpful for finishing a couple of art projects the night before our wedding!
