Stone Cottage Design...
Clearly Captivating!
The stone cottage design pics shown here feature cozy cottages loaded with character and charm. Warm and inviting -- yet shrouded in mystery -- the stories they would undoubtedly tell if only their stone walls could talk!
No matter where we go in our travels, the sight of a stone cottage often mesmerizes us. What is it about
these structures that attracts us to them and draws us in?
Is it their nostalgic charm and ambiance? Is it
their sense of timelessness? Is it their sense of history, stability, and seeming immortality? Is it their
storybook style enchantment?
Perhaps it is all of these . . . and more. What IS certain is that they continue to have a hold on us, as they have in centuries past . . . regardless of how ancient -- or recent -- they may be!
