The views, the quiet surroundings, comfortable bed, convenience.
No hot water in the main on suite bathroom, and extremely slow water drainage in other bathroom shower. Water was nearly overflowing.

Questions about Granny Smith Cottage

What time is check-in and check-out at Granny Smith Cottage?

Check-in is from 12:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Granny Smith Cottage allow pets?

Is there parking at Granny Smith Cottage?

Does Granny Smith Cottage have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Granny Smith Cottage have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Granny Smith Cottage?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
