Hiddenspring Cottage - when will it be available?

Ravensilver · October 27

We have new houses in East Solstice (among other places), but so far there's been no word on Hiddenspring Cottage. When will it be available?

LunaFlora · October 27

hopefully in November

That would be lovely!

Right now, the only thing keeping me in ESO is housing... and I've fallen in love with the cottage, so I'd really like to get started furnishing it... ^^;;

Yes! It's the size of it that I really love! It's so cozy! I wish we had more like that and not always these huge things that you can't really furnish properly. ;__;

I have been waiting for this house too. It's a lovely little house and I am looking forward to decorating it. I am very surprised it hasn't been made available yet.

Same here!

I just checked, but then realized that I will have to wait until this evening to get it... ^^;; Since 10 am EST doesn't mean 10 am here in Europe... ^^;;

SilverBride · November 13

10 am EST is 7 am PST so it will be available here by the time I get out of bed. I don't usually log in until the afternoon but today I will!

I just bought the cottage

I had forgotten how cute all the little animals are. This is the best house I have seen for a while.

SilverBride · November 13

I just got it, too! The only thing that disappointed me is that when we use the bird feeder no birds actually come down. We have to look toward the trees and see small birds flying among the branchers.

The more time I spend at this house, the more birds I notice flying around. One even came and landed on the bridge next to me!

I feed birds and squirrels at my irl house and they come right up to me when I fill their feeders. I hoped for something like that. I'll try to find some bird like pets to put around the feeder.

But other than that, it's so pretty and peaceful and I love it!

Nothing happens when you click ‘use’ on birdhouse or the feeding spot - just get a black screen for a few secs - is that really whats supposed to happen?!

When we click the birdhouse the screen goes black and birds appear flying around the tree branches. Clicking the birdhouse again removes the birds.

There are 2 feeding spots on the ground, one on each side of the house. Each controls their half of the yard separately. Clicking these brings out or removes small animals.

I bought the house tonight after previewing it. Just lovely (and I don't care much about housing - they're mainly port locations for me). It's been a while since they've released a house I like. Bring on more smaller houses, please!

(There are bird feeders and feeding spots? Will have to go see tomorrow...)

ETA: Couldn't wait so checked it out tonight. Found the birdhouse and the two feeding spots. For me, the birdhouse just makes the screen go black. I don't see any difference after. The feeding spot to the left of the house was surrounded by animals. I clicked on it, screen went black, after all the animals were gone. Clicked on it again, screen went black, this time after they were back. The one on the right of the house doesn't seem to do anything. No animals were there. I clicked on it and after, no animals. Clicked on it again, after, no animals. So maybe it's not working.

Still love the house!

SilverBride · November 14

One thing I wish is that they would stop putting big fireplaces that we can't remove in bad spots in these houses.

Buffy121 · November 14

Yes I totally agree about fireplaces. They should be removeable so they can be placed in the preferred position.

The feeding spot on the right toggles a hare and a badger near the stump and the big tree and a squirrel near the porch. The birdhouse toggles a bird on the bridge (there might be more, but those are the ones I found)

Finally had a chance to take a look at this and....I love it. Can't wait to get it. 😊

The right feeding spot also toggles a badger at the back of the house.

And I found 3 Crows on the roof of the house.

whitecrow · November 14

It's a cute little house with a nice outdoors, but why do we die if we jump to the lower outdoor area??

I actually have 4000 crowns so I am considering...

Thanks. I'll check out those locations next time I'm there.

OMG, I did the same thing. Jumped towards the deer and bam! lol.

It really should be explorable. It's not a huge area, it's surrounded by cliffs. It looks like the stream may run out to an exit.
They should at least have put a fence in! It's hazardous!

SilverBride · November 14

What is weird is if we go down too far we die. But if we place platforms over the low areas we can build out pretty far in some spots. I'm going to make some walkways that lead over to an observation platform to study the animals below. I'll test to see how low I can place it without dying.

SilverBride · November 14

I am seeing a second rabbit on the right side, and a squirrel on a rock in the back that I never noticed before. Maybe what animals we see come and go? Or move around?

Perhaps it's like the animals in the Sword-Singer's Redoubt's cavern? They are not always the same.

LootAllTheStuff · November 15

So has anyone with this property tried making their character look like Snow White yet?

spartaxoxo · November 15

I'm so glad you made this thread. This is one of the nicest houses! I love all the little animals. It was an instant buy from me.

Buffy121 · November 15

I also jumped down to the deer near the stream and died. I am beginning to think all housing people are crazy and we need protecting from ourselves

Ilumia · November 15

This is an absolute gem of a house. The animals make it seem alive, and I feel as if I stepped into a fairy tale.
Two critique points though; it would be great if we could go to the lower level. I also took the chance and hopped and died because it looked so inviting to explore.
And the second: I wish it had 700 spots. Even though it isn't a massive place, it'd be easy to use them all to make a nice build. The lower count seems arbitrary and doesn't make sense to me.
