FIELD VIEW COTTAGE , CONVENIENT TO ALL BERKSHIRE ATTRACTIONS

The house was immaculate and the yard is huge for children to romp around. We had a family portrait
taken and the backyard was the perfect backdrop. Great Barrington is a wonderful town to explore...great shops and restaurants. The owner, Robin, was gracious and helpful and her shop in town is beautiful.

This was our first visit to the Berkshires, and this house was a highlight of our stay! It was like staying in a hotel, except in the comfort of a nice home with many amenities. It was beautifully decorated, EXTREMELY clean, uncluttered, and very kid-friendly. The house looked exactly like the pictures and everything that the owner described in the ad was accurate. We had at one point a group of 8 (5 adults and 3 small children), and everyone had a comfortable bed and space. (The house can comfortably sleep 9-10.)

The house was well-equipped with modern appliances, and the kitchen was stocked with all the things a chef/host would need. There was a great selection of games for both children and adults - my 6 year old son and his friends particularly delighted over a large collection of legos in the house. They also enjoyed running around and playing ball in the backyard. The house has a nice screen-covered breezeway where we would dine, enjoying the fresh country air and view of the fields. The upstairs bedrooms have especially amazing views of the fields.

The location in Great Barrington is terrific - 5-10 minute drive from everything we needed - lake, hiking, groceries, shops, restaurants, bowling, etc. We also thought GB was a convenient location to the rest of the Berkshires, with easy drives to Lenox/Tanglewood, Stockbridge/Normal Rockwell Museum, Hancock Shaker Village, Bash Bish Falls.

Last but not least, the owner, Robin, was great to deal with. She was always very responsive and helpful in providing suggestions for activities and restaurants for our first trip to the Berkshires. We also enjoyed visiting her at her design store, Seeds, in GB.

We would highly recommend this house, and will return for our next visit to GB.

What a beautiful house. Unfortunately, we were not there for a vacation, but this was really a great find.

It was clean, spacious, well equipped, well located and everything one would expect from a home away from home. The house is surrounded by beautiful lawns and backs onto fields with wide, open views of the countryside from the huge second-floor bedroom windows.

The owners very thoughtfully provide a discount card to the local grocery, and also a complimentary museum pass for two ~ very useful extras, which were completely unexpected. There is Wi-Fi and a radio with i-pod connectivity, satellite TV, Jacuzzi bath/shower, huge fireplace (that we didn't need in August, but would be fun in winter !) and many nice touches. The living room is great for even a huge party ~ from speaking with the really friendly owners, I am sure they wouldn't mind that at all.

The owners were very accommodating and responsive. I was unable to meet them since we had a very short visit and much to attend to ~ next time though, it will be for a vacation.

Thank you, Robin.. I hope to be your guest again sometime, and would definitely recommend you very highly.
