Does anyone else think Gull Cottage...


Does anyone else think Gull Cottage is the most perfect home? I would do anything to live in a cottage like that.

reply

Yes, it's a wonderful place. It reminds me of an old house I and a bunch of friends rented for several summers on Cape Cod.

Sometimes I pass by old houses with a certain look, curved bay windows perhaps - on the coast, possibly (I'm in the UK) - and I say "I'd love to live here". The other half says "Yes, I thought you'd say that. Very Ghost and Mrs Muir".

There is something compelling about the idea of a somewhat (but not entirely) isolated house looking out over the sea... I imagine sitting, reading inside by the glow of a lamp; a fire crackling in the grate; the evening silence occasionally broken by a mournful foghorn in the gloom.

Probably everyone on this board including me would love to live in Gull Cottage.

Count me in!

I agree. Living on the ocean would be wonderful and peaceful at the same time.

I love to imagine living there; it would be wonderful. And having Capt. Gregg as a companion wouldn't be too awful, either!

reply

He was very handsome. He and Lucy complimented each other very well.

Yes it looks very cosy and is close to a beach which would be great in the summer.

Dear HomerParrish:

AMEN!

That cottage by the sea would be my heaven.

Ghost or not. Although Capt. Greg is a major plus.

Yes. One of the best houses in a movie.
