Friends weekend
We were relaxing and visiting Mt. Cuba. Wanted to stay in-town. House was adorable and location was great. Lots of nice touches to make everything comfortable (tea, extra blankets, multiple keys). Would absolutely come back!

Great location, charming back yard
Cute, clean and very walkable to downtown Kennett. Charming backyard with shaded sitting area. Property has only one bathroom and it’s upstairs. Wr had a 94 yr old with us and for safety felt we should walk our parent up and down the wooden steps.

Charming Home in a Perfect Location
We had a lovely stay and hope to return. The house was exactly what we want in a vacation rental. It had charm and personality, was located within walking distance of cafes and restaurants and was very comfortable for the four of us. Communication with Ivanna was seamless. Our family has a wonderful stay.

Wonderful weekend getaway
My friends and I stayed here for a girl's weekend. It was really a perfect stay. The location is great for walking to shops and restaurants. The house is so cute and beautifully decorated. There were so many little details that made us feel we were somewhere special--the kitchen had coffee, tea, and snacks set out for us. The bathroom had nice toiletries and we had plenty of towels for our group of five. The backyard patio looked very cozy and is set up for relaxing in privacy. We loved it!

Fun Family Stay
Our 2 college-age kids were home for the holidays so we booked an overnight trip to Longwood Gardens. Homey Retreat was perfect in every way from the close proximity to Longwood, short walking distance to Kennett Square shopping and dining, safe location, and an awesome host. I loved the welcome board and message! Our daughter absolutely loved the downstairs bedroom! And our son appreciated the snacks! Thank you, Ivanka!

A weekend at Longwood
Great location for our visit to Longwood Gardens and just a short walk to all the shops and restaurants in Kennet Square. We spent a wonderful weekend at this cute townhouse: drinking wine and coffee in the back garden and cheering on marathon runners from the front porch. The decor is delightful, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well appointed. We would return!

Girls weekend!
Two friends and myself came to go to longwood gardens and have a nice relaxing girls getaway! This property goes above and beyond. Ivana is such a great host with great communication. The parking is super easy and convenient and you cannot beat the location and how close it is to downtown kennett square and only a short drive to longwood gardens! The beds were so comfortable, great tv with streaming services and not to mention the snacks and waters provided which was a nice unexpected touch! Lovely outdoor area as well in the back! Safe and cute neighborhood highly recommend this property!

Just Perfect
This beautiful row home is within walking distance of Kennett Square downtown. The place itself is adorable! The pictures do not do it justice. I spent a weekend here with my sister and my daughter. We were attending a wedding in nearby West Grove. Ivana is such a great host. She responds immediately and had everything ready, including lights on, for our after dark arrival. The backyard was perfect for morning coffee and afternoon chats. The bedrooms were comfortable and we slept well. The artwork is eclectic, quirky and really fits in with the decor. We could not have had a better stay and will hope to come back again. Kennett Square is such a cute town with good restaurants and shops.

Great house in an awesome location
The décor was amazing, the layout was great - we commented on how well the owners had made use of all the available space. The location is just a short walk to cool shops and restaurants. The extras - coffees, teas, creamers and snacks were wonderful. Thank you Ivana for providing such a great place to stay!

We had such a wonderful stay in Kennett Square visiting family. The townhome was even better than the photos! Loved the attention to detail, decor and comfy beds! The kitchen was well stocked, and Ivana was a wonderful host! She checked in with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed and replied quickly to any question we had! We loved how close we were to great restaurants and coffee shops. Can't wait to stay here again next time were in town!
