The home was so charming, very walkable to shops, restaurants.

Walked up to shops, the people were very friendly. We were fortunate to be there for the 2nd Thursday of the month when all the restaurants had tables out on the Main Street. Music, good food and fun. We went to Longwood Gardens, beautiful of course.

2nd stay- not the last!

2nd time staying here. I would not stay anywhere else in Kennett Square. The house is so cute, clean and within walking distance of downtown. We were 4 adults attending a U Delaware graduation and it was an easy 25 minute beautiful drive to DE. IVANA is a stellar host. So responsive. We took a red eye fom AZ and arrived at PHL at 6 am. Ivana went out of her way to allow us to check in before noon! That never happens! We will be back!

What a pleasant surprise to find a tastefully well appointed place to stay in a great part of town and walking distance to many of the things we loved. Everything was spotless and full of nice little detail to make us feel so comfortable, a true gem of a place. Thank you.

Homey Retreat in Kennett Square

My two sisters and I stayed at Ivana's place because we are from out of town and planned a visit to Longwood Gardens. We were very comfortable during our stay. It's cozy and has all the amenities you need. We each had our own bedroom and the beds were comfortable and the rooms are decorated very nicely. The kitchen has all of the supplies you need.We were there when it was cold and rainy, but the backyard would have been a nice place to sit and have a glass of wine if it was during the warmer months of the year. I would recommend staying here!
