Notting Hill Cottage

The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and comfortable. The deck was lovely and expansive, ans the hot tub was a treat!

We loved our stay at Notting Hill Cottage. It was nice to have a few extra touches such as coffee and creamer set out to use, and chips and popcorn goodies on the table. It was quiet with a beautiful deck and we really enjoyed the hot tub. It is a secluded area, so know that before you go. We got dinner at Von Jakob Winery the first night which was good and we drove to Giant City Lodge for our second dinner (about 30 minutes away). Breakfast was in Cobden at the Iron Whisk which was excellent! Or you can bring your own groceries in and cook in the well supplied kitchen! (just not my choice!) The cottage is roomy and the bed was very comfortable. It is well taken care of and clean. The owners were very good about communicating with us. All in all, it was a wonderful two days away from home! We will certainly be back for another stay!

An adorable house with a large, fenced backyard for our pups. It was heavenly! The property was close to everything southern Illinois has to offer - college, parks, wine, small towns. Clean house, comfortable beds, great amenities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Quaint and cozy cottage as described. Easy to find, ample parking. Great not to be able to see any neighbors. Easy drive to Town and local winery's. Rear of cottage was all glass sliding doors with beautiful sunrise through the trees. New hottub was a big plus plus

The host was great at communicating with us. The hot tub and deck was so nice! Very quiet and peaceful location! We would stay again!

Cabin was clean and well appointed. Great location and had everything we needed!

Was a great place to stay, with perfect location to many attractions.

Accessing the property was very easy. Perfect amount of space for the two of us. Well controlled HVAC, never cold or hot, just right. Deck was very spacious, quiet, sitting on it relaxing was great. Hot tub being sunken into the deck was great as in February could get pretty chilly out, so sitting down in it, kept it perfect for hours.

We loved how private and clean the cottage was. It was the perfect space for our weekend getaway.

Great location!! Quiet and secluded, yet close to Alto Pass and many great hiking trails! The hot tub was a wonderful refresh after a day of hiking trails. The cabin was clean and had a good kitchen and dining table for meals.

The house was perfect for our needs! this is the third time we have stayed there, and it never disappoints!

Kitchen set up was good. Didn't use the hot tub

We had an amazing girls' weekend at this beautiful cabin! The view was stunning, the decor cozy, and we enjoyed the hot tub. We loved catching up and making memories together. Can't wait to do it again!

Great location. Quiet and secluded. Loved the fence in back yard and pet friendly!!

The cottage was absolutely beautiful and very cozy!! Check in was at 4:00 and a breeze to get in. It was clean and the hot tub was a great bonus!! We loved our stay. We toured the Cross of Peace around the corner from us, enjoyed the Alto winery and Orchards. Lots to do in a small town. We rode our bicycles one evening and loved looking at the countryside. Great little getaway for us. Thanks for being great hosts.

The house is cute and the dogs loved the fenced in yard!

Nice getaway with the grands. We also brought our pup which was accommodated without issue. Close to walking trails and KinKaid Lake. Had a very nice few days of hiking, boating, and hanging in the hot tub. Would definitely stay here again and certainly recommend!

A lot of driving in between trails but worth it!!

It was the perfect stay. Great location right by the wine trail. It was secluded and the hot Tub was heavenly. Would recommend to anyone that needs a getaway.

2nd stay here. For our anniversary. Love the seclusion. Its peaceful. Great place.

This is 2nd time staying at this location. Everything is clean and cozy. Good location and nice Hot tube.

We had a wonderful relaxing time

The property was as described and clean! There are a few extras that were wonderful, coffee, sugar, and bug spray! It is located near wineries and hiking. Hot tub was great after long hikes. We did not realize it was pet friendly which caused our allergies to act up but that was our fault for not reading closely.

This property was perfect for our family vacation. Being a pet friendly facility was a huge bonus. The backyard was perfect for relaxing and plenty of space all around! We would definitely recommend this home.

Absolutely a wonderful place to get away from the big city. We needed to unwind and just relax. This was the perfect place. The cabin was great with everything we wanted and needed. Hot tub was a highlight. Quiet, peaceful and serene setting. Spring was in full bloom here. Exceptional views abound on the property and the surrounding areas. Thanks to the hosts for making this a favorite!!!

We stayed 4 days with our pup who enjoyed the fenced in yard! Despite the rainy weather for half of our trip we were comfortable in the house. It had everything we needed to cook and relax. Utlized the hot tub a few days as well as hiked neary Giant City and Ferne Cliff.

Wonderful property and near to wineries and state parks. It had everything we needed and we loved the hot tub!

Perfect getaway for peace and quiet. Beautiful hikes and great for dogs. Hot tub was excellent.

A friend and I and our sons (who are BFFs) booked this home as a little spring break getaway, to get our city kids out into nature. It was perfect. The area is beautiful, and the house is so charming. We spent time hiking in Giant City State Park and Shawnee, relaxing in the hot tub, and just enjoying our time together. The house is really nicely set up for a family or a small group. The boys, who are 10 and 11, were obsessed with the loft area. We enjoyed a gorgeous sunrise our last morning, and all the stars we could see both nights. The hosts were helpful and friendly. The beds were comfy, and the WiFi was speedy enough for what little screen time the boys needed. My son is already begging to go back, and with all the wineries and orchards nearby, I imagine we’ll be visiting again soon! Thank you!

Fantastic little cabin, perfect location for wineries and outdoor activities. If you've never been to the area you are missing out. Everything is exactly as described and our stay was excellent. It was great to find a pet friendly location, the fenced in back yard is an amazing feature for dog owners. We will definitely come back.

We stayed here previously but it was under different ownership. The new owners have done a great job of making it really comfortable. It was a perfect spot for us to visit family and have our own space close by.

Nice, private, cozy getaway for Valentine's Day Weekend. Very comfortable. And hot tubbing while it is snowing was a nice contrast, and a new experience.

Great place. Close to many things to do and see.

As a quick summary - my fiancé and I planned a long weekend to celebrate my birthday and to do our annual planning. We’ve stayed before in 2022 and had a good stay but this one was just not it. Issues:- check in was Friday 1/10 on Wednesday 1/8 I hadn’t heard anything from the host so I reached out. I had concerns since area had lost power earlier that week and offered to reschedule if needed. Host confirmed all was fine. We did end up checking in a day early due to additional snow coming. - WiFi didn’t work at all. I told the host this 1/9 and had to reach out through 1/11 for updates. Having to continue to reach out, send pictures of router, etc was inconvenient. Also we would have rescheduled if we had known this was an issue upfront. -DVD player also didn’t work and we let the host know-ended up leaving 1/11 instead of our check out on Monday 1/13 because I was spending more time reaching out to the host and trying to fix the internet vs our plans. Let the host know and completed all check out duties prior to check out time. Didn’t hear from them until later that day. I did ask for a refund of remaining two nights due to wifi issues causing us to leave early. I hadn’t heard anything so reached out again on 1/24 and haven’t heard back.

Great repeat stay for us at this property. Secluded, quiet location with a number of close outdoor activities and wineries. Communication with owners is easy and helpful. We'll stay here again for sure.

Got away with wife and kids (10 and 8). Perfect stay!

The cabin is excellent! It is clean and roomy. The location is perfect for our needs. This is the second time we have stayed there, and hope to stay again.

Hubby and I wanted a few days away with our senior rescue pup. We were looking to unwind and this place was perfect. This cottage has an amazing back deck, hot tub and large back yard. Kitchen had everything we needed. We picked the perfect time of year to see all the fall foliage. Definitely recommend!

Very nice home. Loved the hottub after a day of hiking. Felt very much like being at home. Great place to relax.

Very clean. Nice location close to hiking trails and wineries.

Great place!

Our stay was perfect. The host was easy to contact and very responsive. We stayed for SIU family weekend and the location gave us a nice break from busyness on Carbondale.
