We had a great time! Everything was clean and comfortable. The location is perfect, we walked to everything we did in just a few minutes. The kitchen was well outfitted, lots of linens were provided and besides a bathroom fan nothing was missing to make our stay more comfortable!

Truly a unique stay. As with many old buildings, there is a concern for damp, musty air quality but I am happy to say that this unit was beautifully updated and modernized. Tastefully decorated as well. Gourmet coffee and biscotti in the kitchen as well as a variety of teas. Shower had plenty of hot water and good water pressure! Also very nice to drive and park right up to the door.

What a great stay. The accommodations were PERFECT. Great location for walking into Kennett Square and just a few minutes to drive to Longwood Gardens. The carriage house was quiet, roomy, and had all the amenities we needed. Hosts could not have been more accommodating. It was really the perfect weekend. We will be back for sure.

Everything was excellent. Might be my first rental that actually had sharp knives and good pans. Convenient walking to restaurants, but we mostly cooked in. Everything was very comfortable. The provided coffee and biscotti were much appreciated in the morning.

Disappointed in the number of gift shops in the area.We mainly came for Longwood gardens. A great restaurant to eat at was Letty's Tavern. We ate there 3 times! Great salads and hamburgers.Their pizza was also fantastic! Our condo was one of the nicest we've stayed in. Alot of nice extra touches! Mints by the bed, cookies in a jar, sparkling water in the frig,paper towels folded like a big bow! The bed and pillows were so very comfortable! Very nice place!

Outstanding!

I wish all of the clients I have to travel to were in this area so I could always stay at this property! I'm sure the other units Matt & David have with VRBO are just as amazing! I'd be thrilled to stay in any of them! The area is gorgeous, quiet, and quaint. Walking distance to a bunch of non-franchise businesses so if you love to support local, even when you're not a local, this is a great place to do that!

This property is everything and more. We were so thrilled when we unlocked the door and saw how charming and quiet it was. It is within a few blocks of Kennett's downtown. It was extremely clean, the bed is to die for, the shower and towels were amazing. The kitchen is well stocked and very well done. We both said we could live there. A huge compliment coming from an interior designer who unfortunately critiques every place we stay. Most don't measure up....this one exceeded my expectations. We will be back. Thanks Matt for putting so much thought into this rental.

Perfect accommodations for a weekend getaway!

We felt at home at The Carriage House, and highly recommend this suite for your stay in Kennett Square PA. It was the perfect location, the unit was very clean, and the hosts are great at communication. We spent our Anniversary weekend here and it was fantastic to be able to walk to the shops and restaurants. There is parking for one car in front of each unit, which is so convenient for loading and unloading all the necessities (and extra stuff) you take on your trip. The unit was clean, the king bed was comfortable, and it is in a neighborhood so it’s a quiet location. All the information we needed for our stay was provided by our hosts which made our stay easy and stress-free. Great communication from confirming our reservation, through our stay, and clear instructions to follow when we prepared to leave. The suite is the perfect size for two people and easy to find. Thanks to our hosts for thinking of everything we needed to enjoy our visit!

Elegant convenience

My wife and I enjoyed our short time here. Check-in was easy and efficient. Communication with the host was timely and responsive. The rooms were spotless and elegant. The bed was incredibly comfortable but we prefer a firm mattress. We spent more time out and about and the convenient location to the Kennett Sq. shops and restaurants was a welcome bonus. We would definitely book this space again and highly recommend it.
