Or Wawona Hotal, maybe?

 

Yes, this house is part of the Wawona Hotel - one of the oldest hotels in California and situated in Yosemite Park. Delightful place to stay in, although the creature comforts are those of a nineteenth century traveler - no tv, no minibar, no airco... - which makes it such a charming place, like taking a time machine.

Remember that I asked for the name of the house if you wanted to score the 'extra points'. It is the oldest building of the hotel and the only one that never burned down. Most historical indeed, especially in a 'newer' state like California.

I believe it is called Clark Cottage. Naturally, it is still aarflot's go next.

 

Bit of a problem here, Wattsy... That is the right answer, but Aarflot had the right first answer and a great chance (!) to go for the extra points. Shall we ask him to take it from here?

Absolutely. I'd already suggested it should be Aarflot's go.

 

I think Adli also makes a fair observation - looks like Aarflot had already won the "extra points".:)

Oh dear, you are right, Adli! I just checked. We stayed in Clark cottage and I took the picture from our terrace, of Washburn cottage... All three of you get the extra points!
