Second time, even more charm
I loved it so much, I booked a second stay at the cottage. Everything that was excellent during my first stay - the neighborhood, thoughtful and welcoming hosts, all the amenities you might need, cleanliness - was on-point again. Thank you for sharing your property and creating such a welcoming space for guests!

A warm welcome to Asheville
We arrived late after a last minute booking and Christian was very accommodating. He made us feel most welcome after our long journey. The hospitality was amazing. The accommodations were very clean and quite comfortable. Christian was so helpful with locating excellent food and any other services we needed. A very positive experience. The carriage house was darling and fresh. I believe the housekeeper said that the entire cottage had been renovated . The two bedrooms were perfection with high end linens and most tastefully decorated. The attention to detail was impressive. I would definitely book this property again. Our host was available, but gave us the privacy to relax that we desired. Five stars for sure! Linda Sullivan September 9, 2019

The cottage is adorable and in a perfect location - quiet but central to everything Asheville has to offer. Christian and Claudia are so helpful and gracious and go out of their way to make your stay a great one. I will happily stay here again next time I'm in town!

Cute Cottage
We enjoyed staying at the Carriage House for a long weekend. The location was convenient to a lot of things locally. Excellent place for those looking to stay and explore the local cuisine. The kitchen was sparse but had essentials for breakfast. The house was comfortable and Christian was very accommodating for our kids and dogs. Only complaint was a fan would have been nice for downstairs to help with airflow and keep things cool during the day.

Lovely carriage house in pretty, quiet neighborhood.
This little cottage was a perfect size for the two of us and our dogs. Good area for walks with them. The property is well maintained and cute. Shabby chic describes the living area, it was quite comfortable. The beds and linens were first rate. The Inn on the property and grounds are beautiful. Christian was an attentive host, but was not intrusive. I’m sure staying at his Sweet Biscuit Inn would be a treat to BnBers. We would stay here again.

Highly Recommend!
I stayed in the cottage this past weekend with some friends. We went for a "mom's weekend away" and it was truly a great experience. The hosts were extremely polite and pleasant and very hospitable. They made sure we had all we needed and provided some great recommendations of restaurants in the area. I would gladly rent this place again or the B&B that is on the same property. I highly recommend it to anyone considering it. The cottage is very small (thus, a cottage) but was very comfortable for myself and my 3 friends.
