Cute, comfy, and quiet
This was my 2nd stay at the Storybook Cottage. It's far enough from Julian to be quiet, but close enough for quick trips to town. The cottage is well supplied with amenities, even fresh eggs and muffins. The cottage is cute and comfortable, I highly recommend it.

Perfect Birthday
Stayed in this cottage over the weekend to celebrate my birthday. The location was close to restaurants, shops, and wine tasting rooms. This is a cute and cozy cottage. The farm animals on the grounds added so much character to this listing.
The cottage was well stocked with snacks, water, and delicious breakfast foods, including fresh eggs. Yummy!
I would definitely recommend this listing to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
Thank you Angela!

Pretty, cozy and comfy
Such a cute place, and in a pretty country setting. The cottage was supplied with everything you might need, including a variety of breakfast items, plus snacks and a few drinks. It is a short drive to Julian, but far enough away that the setting was quiet and serene. I felt so peaceful there. I hope to go back soon.
