We loved our extended stay at this warm country cottage nestled in the woods of Weston. Close to the Merritt Parkway and the Post Rd we had easy access to surrounding towns including Westport, New Canaan, Wilton, Fairfield and Norwalk. Lots of hiking trails nearby. Richard and Nicci are friendly and attentive hosts.

My hosts Richard and Nicki were warm and welcoming.I was staying alone and they were attentive and generous. The cottage was also warm and welcoming, comfortable and immaculate. I especially loved my mornings in the cozy porch with coffee and a view of stunning foliage. Enjoyed the nearby trails and proximity to friends and family. The perfect place to pause and reset.
