Please update your host if any changes to your guest count occur as only the registered number of guests receive the complementary guest breakfast. Should extra guests want to join you in the cafe or if you would like to purchase additional breakfast/brunch items not included in the complementary menu (ie: deluxe menu items such as the Eggs Benedict, mimosas, etc) these can always be purchased separately in the cafe during business hours. The property features many options for outdoor seating with lovely views of our various gardens featuring seasonal blooms as well as multiple bird feeders & baths frequented by our feathered friends (as well as our bushy tailed squirrel friends!) & a hammock to enjoy the grounds.

Fun stat
My daughter and I stayed here while she went to a local day camp. It is a cute cottage in a great location. I really enjoyed exploring Pittsboro during the day. Super cute town with lots of good places to eat. We had a short stay and wish I had known ahead of my visit that the cafe was closed on Monday and Tuesday (several of the shops in town are also closed Monday or Monday and Tuesday). If your planning may be better to plan to visit later in the week. The breakfast at the cafe is delicious also enjoyed T&S Soda shop. Such a fun place.

Great location, neat property, friendly and accommodating staff
We loved everything about the property, and walkability of the area. The food and service in the cafe was phenominal. Breakfast being included was a huge plus. Hopefully in the future they will allow guests to order room service or call in order for expedited pickup. The wait times for food were a little long. They were very busy but for good reason. The staff did a great job. We will definitely be staying again 5 stars all around

We will be back Socksie 🐾
The guest house was a-maxing!! I have been telling all our friends about our lovely stay. One of the highlights was making friend with Socksie ….. the sweetest cat who guards the property. The house was perfect in every way. Very clean. Very comfortable. And very memorable. An easy walk to downtown Pittsboro with super quaint shopping as well as yummy food places. The owner of the property was just a delight!! We feel like we made a new friend!! Thank you for giving us the most wonderful experience!! Oh! Wait!! I almost forgot ….. make plans to go to the Carolina Big Cat Rescue while in Pittsboro too. Great tour! Twilight is the best!!

Our son and his family moved to Pittsboro in February. Your B&B is very close to him and so Convenient for us. We all love the cafe, and they join us for brunch. Despite the warmer temps, it was quite pleasant sitting outside to eat Sunday brunch! We love the charm of your cottage , and the first time we stayed in the woodshed too!

Lovely Stay
We came to town to visit my grandmother and had no idea our Airbnb pick was going to be so great. We were just looking for a place to stay in town, and ended up falling in love with the cottage & cafe. A memorable stay for sure and we’ll become regulars there. Loved it!
