Summary: We loved our stay at Luna Rose. The owners home, the space felt like staying at a friends while they were gone. There was a comfortable living room with beautiful views of a country garden in bloom, and outdoor seating to enjoy fresh spring weather. Three bedrooms had comfortable beds, attractive decor and bedding. The two bathrooms were newer construction and immaculate. Kitchen and dining room and long hallway leading to the front porch completed the property, so there was lots of space. Our elderly family stayed in the bedroom with the attached bath, our teen staying in her own room, and we took the back bedroom with steps down into our bathroom, The house has historic charm, some of the floors creak so no sneaking around! The home is filled with art and books and has everything needed to fix a snack or a meal for the family. The added bonus for us was the two very friendly cats who live outside and were happy to greet us and sit in laps purring! Near a park, just down down the road from Historic Hillsborough with great shops and restaurants and the river walk. Loved it!
