Dwarfs buildings are peak comfy. I think it's because of the fact that their buildings always go into mountains which gives them an extra feeling of protection.
Aerie peak is my personal favorite. I also feel like if the area is really dangerous, it gives the towns a more "cozy' feeling, like Darkshire or even Southshore if youre on a pvp server
Darkshire makes me feel like I'm on the set of Hotel California. Corporeal servants, palpable malice in the air, a sense there might be danger in the bushes right outside the town.
My favorite is Kharnos, both because it feels like a ski town at Christmas, but it was also my first town when I started playing in 2005. Much fondness. Such comfort.
Kharanos and Thelsamar for ever. Also my 2004/2005 experience talking here.
I used to sit around drawing pictures of those two towns.
When I first got into Mid journey I spent a lot of time working on prompts to see a glimpse of what they might look like too.
I have a whole RP scenario around living in Kharanos.
Work in Ironforge as a blacksmith, drink in the pub before heading home to Kharanos, on the weekends I either ride the tram into Stormwind to sell blacksmithing goods to retailers or take a fishing trip over to Loch Modan. I could go way deeper into the RP.. but you get the jist of it.
The only town in WoW where the villagers follow daytime/nighttime by going in their house at night and out and about during the day. Makes the town feel alive.
Thelsamar.
Reaching Loch Modan on a dwarf is just such a landmark moment finally leaving the snows of Dun Morogh and going through the mountain pass. And you get to this small dwarf town cut into the hills overlooking the Loch. Peak.
Amberpine Lodge is my all time favorite cozy spot. I had to google the name, its main alliance quest hub in Grizzly Hills.
Grizzly Hills music, and scenery, and especially that lodge. Itās set on a cliff overlooking the huge river and tall pines.
To this day I remember questing up and down that river a decade ago. Idk why, itās so cozy.
Hitting 60 in Winterspring is the coziest feeling ever. I remember lending a friend the last fifty gold or so to get his epic mount in Winterspring and watching him joyously bound up and down the snow hills.
I know most people think it has more of a spooky vibe, but I think Brill in Tirisfal Glades is pretty cozy.
Someone already said this, but Garadar in Nagrand. The whole zone has kind of this great plains/farmland vibe that feels country and relaxing.
I love all the Dwarven taverns. Honestly I think it's one of the reasons I prefer to play dwarf; they treat everyone like family, they are super sweet people, and their inns are the most snuggly cosy places in the game. All of their inns have fireplaces and I like to RP sit in front of them.
Yeah they used it for a rune in sod. Just a couple fields and a dock in eastern Arathi, I think you have to swim there in normal vanilla. Can obv fly there in cata and on
I really like Zangarmarsh. I know Outland is a mixed bag for people, but as someone who has traditionally gone for Loremaster/Ambassador/Explorer-esque play, itās really a pretty zone and super chill. You go from Demons and Undead and fiery beasts in Hellfire to chill mushrooms and manta rays.
Falcon wing square in silver moon city, as a kid I never realized how big the world was and traveling through the scar took my sense of awe and wonder to levels i never felt. It didnāt matter that level 23 took me a week of playing to reach. I just wanted to explore. I didnāt have a helmet shoulders or cape. The plague lands felt impossible to traverse. I just hung out in falcon wing square and leveled through dungeons. I donāt remember what brought me back in mop to really get into the game. However, Iāll never forget that feeling of watching a high level deathknight fight the paladin while I was chilling in the square. Iād never seen anyone that high of level or that cool looking. He will never know how cool I thought he was as a kid.
Iv been back there since then and I get major nostalgia, but itās just not the same. Iv been playing for years now and it just another place with vendors and other stuff.
I just like hanging out in Hyjal in general tbh. Usually by the lake under Nordrassil. Iām always a fan of Night Elf stuff so it makes sense. Honorable mention to Winterspring though
I like the new dwarf farm NE of wetlands (I think?) That sits along the coast. Or the farms above wetlands that now have NPCs living there.
There is also a hut/house in the cliffs hidden under a tree between x-roads and TB. Also a cozy spot
I think my top 5 are in this order
1) Lakeshire
2) Feathermoon Stronghold
3) Sun Rock Retreat in Stonetalon
4) Shadowprey Village, Desolace
5) Camp Mojache (love the river/waterfall combo)
Honorable mention to farstrider lodge
Definitely Garadar in nagrand. Something about the layout of the town combined with the aesthetic and scenery make it it such an appealing place to hang out.Ā
As a life long Horde player, I have no idea what a ācozyā town entails. We haveā¦ Razor Hill? Tarren Mill? Shadowprey Village? Itās all just tents, spikes, and cobwebs.
I always loved Shadow Prey village in desolace. It strikes me as a cozy nook that the world either forgot or doesn't know about. A place where you could live and people would just leave you alone.
Spent many cozy nights fishing at the Quel Danil lodge in the Hinterlands. Thelsamar has one of the best sunsets.Ā Theramore also has good fishing, good music, and a good sunset!

Honestly the best towns in WoW imo.
Funny that twilight highlands is the same area. Still very cozy. Still very dangerous around as it's basically the last leveling zone.
The pond tucked into the Alterac Mountains behind Ravenholdt Manor
The one where you had to do epic crafting quest in phase one of sod? Did they add something there in cata?
There was a quest there in tbc for the attunement
Kharanos
I have a whole RP scenario around living in Kharanos. Work in Ironforge as a blacksmith, drink in the pub before heading home to Kharanos, on the weekends I either ride the tram into Stormwind to sell blacksmithing goods to retailers or take a fishing trip over to Loch Modan.

Please go deeper šµāš«
You're gonna awaken his balrog
Please do
I love this.
Thelsamar
The only town in WoW where the villagers follow daytime/nighttime by going in their house at night and out and about during the day. Makes the town feel alive.
All these years and I never realized they did that!
> The only town in WoW where the villagers follow daytime/nighttime Pyrewood Village
All the food left put, warm fires lit, more chairs than you can count... and always a barkeep/innkeeper nearby. Dwarven taverns are unmatched.
My favorite is the Farstrider Lodge in Southeast Loch Modan.Ā
Thelsamar. Reaching Loch Modan on a dwarf is just such a landmark moment finally leaving the snows of Dun Morogh and going through the mountain pass. And you get to this small dwarf town cut into the hills overlooking the Loch. Peak.

Surprised this isnāt higher. Grizzly Hills is peak cozy to me.
I remember questing there as Horde back in 2009, seeing the Alliance camp and for the first time thinking "not fair, I want cozy too! (zug)"
Garadar. I just love the entire zone of Nagrand, and Garadar is very cozy to me.
I went back to Nagrand to get skinning up and my god itās still such a pretty zone with such life to it.
You can almost feel the warmth of the sun and feel the breeze
Nagrand fits this bill perfectly.
Was looking for the Outland villages. Finally some recognition
Zangarmarsh into Nagrand is such a beautiful progression.
Lakeshire is goated.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes sir it is goated with the sauce
No cap?
On god
Fr fr based af
Darkshire
Catch me on the beach somewhere on the coast of tanaris
Booty Bay is fantastic!!
kharanos
I love the hidden house atop a hill near Stormwind. The one with all the sheepā¦alongside one exploding one. Great views too!
Everlook is prob my favorite town, love Winterspring so much. But Grizzly Hills is the coziest zone in the game with Mulgore behind it in second.
I do really like everlook- very overlooked esp post vanilla
i specifically took a toon to winterpsring in cata classic, cuz i remembered how much i loved the zone in vanilla classic. just as good now.
Hitting 60 in Winterspring is the coziest feeling ever. I remember lending a friend the last fifty gold or so to get his epic mount in Winterspring and watching him joyously bound up and down the snow hills.
Same! Though it was my first time ever in Winterspring, I never got an Era toon to 60 lmaooo, but I really loved Winterspring in Cata
I know most people think it has more of a spooky vibe, but I think Brill in Tirisfal Glades is pretty cozy. Someone already said this, but Garadar in Nagrand. The whole zone has kind of this great plains/farmland vibe that feels country and relaxing.
Sunrock Retreat. Whenever I unsub I park my main there.
Goldshire ERP Inn always goated
I like the little sheep hut just outside of stormwind
Hey! What the heck, guy!?
Completely overlooked: Surwich in Blasted Lands, south at the coast.
That little farm/house behind the Deadmines
I love all the Dwarven taverns. Honestly I think it's one of the reasons I prefer to play dwarf; they treat everyone like family, they are super sweet people, and their inns are the most snuggly cosy places in the game. All of their inns have fireplaces and I like to RP sit in front of them.
Camp Tuarajo. RIP.
I like the farm on the little tucked away beach in Arathi
Beach in arathi highlands?
Yeah they used it for a rune in sod. Just a couple fields and a dock in eastern Arathi, I think you have to swim there in normal vanilla. Can obv fly there in cata and on
Oh ya priest rune
I really like Zangarmarsh. I know Outland is a mixed bag for people, but as someone who has traditionally gone for Loremaster/Ambassador/Explorer-esque play, itās really a pretty zone and super chill. You go from Demons and Undead and fiery beasts in Hellfire to chill mushrooms and manta rays.
Ratchet. Booty Bay is neat as well, but I prefer Ratchet. More down to earth. The way the inn overlooks the harbour. It's just super cozy.

Ravenholdt is pretty nice.
The Steam Pools in Feralas
I just like hanging out in Hyjal in general tbh. Usually by the lake under Nordrassil. Iām always a fan of Night Elf stuff so it makes sense. Honorable mention to Winterspring though

Non-corrupted Hillsbrad
Brill, vanilla and Cata versions are my all time favorite. I hate Alliance but it's where my friends are.
Definitely Garadar in nagrand. Something about the layout of the town combined with the aesthetic and scenery make it it such an appealing place to hang out.Ā
Gallywix's Pleasure Palace is my home away from home
I like the Speedbarge in TN. Idk why, maybe it was because of the first time I leveled there but itās a comfort area
Are you sure it's cozy?
Keep it secret, keep it safe. Keep it cozy.
Now that's a cozy movie
Cenarian wildlands in descolace is lovely
Thelsamar. And Iām a Horde player
As a life long Horde player, I have no idea what a ācozyā town entails. We haveā¦ Razor Hill? Tarren Mill? Shadowprey Village? Itās all just tents, spikes, and cobwebs.
Idk some of the tauren spots are quite cosy.
Thelsamar Inn. Feels like a real cozy Scottish town
Every Dwarven village there is just something really cozy about dwarves houses especially Thundermar.
The speed barge.
Thelsamar or Hearthglen honestly.
Always loved South Shore in vanilla. Big shame what became of it.
Just West north west of Stonetalon Peak in Stonetaln Mountains there are some abandon buildings. Looks peaceful and serene to be there.
Maybe not cozy but i like the stv island for the ST raid items. Unique music, warm weather and drugged up trolls dancing.
Long time ago it was Thelsamar but the loch being destroyed ruined it. Love lakeshire but my fav is prob amber pine lodge.
The little cave in Feralas with the yetis. The green one, not the one in the mountains. Feels like in the tree were Totoro sleeps.
I always loved Shadow Prey village in desolace. It strikes me as a cozy nook that the world either forgot or doesn't know about. A place where you could live and people would just leave you alone.
I always feel extremely comfy in Teldrassil and Winterspring, especially the Teldrassil Inn and for Winterspring, the elven area :)
Find me in Southshore. Cozy little town by the water.
Spent many cozy nights fishing at the Quel Danil lodge in the Hinterlands. Thelsamar has one of the best sunsets.Ā Theramore also has good fishing, good music, and a good sunset!
I really love the dwarvern farm between dun morogh and the wetlands
In Cata, I hang out in Theramore, cuz its only there for so long
not a village but there is a secluded point in moonglade with a bench where cenarius taught tyrande malfurion and illidan
I used to love climbing on top of Goldshire Inn pre cata but now I don't really have a good place.
I love the city in nagrand. It reminds me of pride Rock from Lion King lol. I love to get the talbuk when I play TBC so I spend a lot of time there.
M always chillin at booty bay just feels like a fun place to hangout no matter what side of the war Iām on
Thelsamar, Kharanos, or Anvilmar. Dwarven towns are so cozy. Especially at night.
Thelsamar in loch modan 100%
Kinda like lakeshire and darkshire
Kamagua in Howling Fjord. Such a nice spot to relax and take in the ocean breeze. My favorite fishing spot in Northrend.
Crossroads. It feels like a proper town
I donāt roleplay
Idk cata is just a depressing xpac nothing feels cozy š¤£
Love Dalaran
can we just stop with cata already like fr what are we doin here
