There were 9 of us all together. We had a wonderful time. The breakfast was delicious as always, but the bathroom could have been cleaner. Baseboard and the spiderwebs were bad! Other than that, it was a good trip. Bonus was when Walt stopped by for a visit with us. We even bought some of his books.

Brenda Gantt is a force! When I grow up, I hope to have half her energy. Biscuits, grits, and fried pies to die for. Rest average. Overall experience great.

My husband and I stayed in the cottage behind the main house. It was a real disappointment. There was only a bathtub and no shower. No privacy for using the commode. The cottage wasn’t as clean as it could have been. ||The best part of our stay was meeting Brenda Gantt. She is a wonderful person and cooked us a delicious breakfast . She took time to talk with us while we ate. I would recommend buying her cookbook just to read the stories and her witness of Christ Jesus in her life!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cottle House Red room. This is an old, historic home in the Deep South. If you’re looking for a posh, spoiled, “attended to” experience… this probably isn’t for you. What you do get is a quaint, rustic room with a clean bed and shared space other guests. I suspect most of the people that come here want to meet the sweet, inspiring lady they see cooking on social media. Ms. Brenda Gantt. She brought over a fantastic breakfast for everyone and sat down at the table to tell us what we needed to see in her beloved town of Andalusia. We hope to return and stay again.

The atmosphere of the Cottle House is great! It is a self-service experience. There is no one to greet you upon arrival, but written instructions are provided. We let ourselves in and locked the door to the house at night before turning in. The one meal, a breakfast prepared by Brenda Gantt, is great and the short visit she has with her guests is very nice. She will autograph your cookbook and welcomes taking pictures with guests. You are on your own to explore the quaint community of Andalusia, Alabama. It is a nice place to visit, but WAY off the interstate. The reservation process is handled via text, and deposits are mailed via check to secure reservations. There is a minimum of a two night stay. The Red Room is where we stayed. It was nice, but the accompanying bathroom was down the hall at the other end of the house. Only the Green Room provides an en suite. The wrap around porch is lovely, and we enjoyed getting to know other house guests. The porch has many places to sit. It provides a fun place to watch the deer in the front yard in the evenings. If you are accustomed to a more attentive experience, you may be somewhat underwhelmed. But if you need a short escape from the hustle and bustle of life, this provides a great respite.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Cottle House. It is a beautiful home with lovely antique furnishings. My happy place was the porch. I can’t say enough good things about Ms. Brenda, her delicious meal and the other guests were so very nice to be with. We felt at home and were treated as much loved guests. Beautiful experience!

This little BnB in Andalusia, Alabama is a wonderful getaway. Ms Brenda is as sweet as the tea she serves. The homemade breakfast cooked by Ms Brenda was incredible! I would highly recommend going to the Cottle House for any occasion. My husband and I stayed in the cottage behind the main dwelling. It was so comfortable. Thank you Ms Brenda for a memorable little getaway.

The Cottle House was lovely and filled with beautiful antiques. We had the best time with other couples sharing the house and little cottage. Ms. Brenda was so kind and loving just like in all her videos and breakfast was absolutely delicious. I wish everyone could have this wonderful experience. We look forward to visiting again. Love you Ms. Brenda ?
