I now use two plug-in electrical heaters to heat my entire efficiency cottage (30×15 living room……..6×10 kitchen ……..and 4×6 bathroom)……I think it would be much cheaper to install a wall gas unit to heat the entire place……What do you think?

Gas is much more energy efficient than electricity to create heat.
The size of your place doesn’t matter. The bigger the place, the bigger the savings, but people buy gas clothes dryers to save money–so if your house is bigger than a clothes dryer, it makes sense.
So it’s cheaper, too. However, because there is a cost to switching, you may not realize a savings for a few years, though your monthly bill will be lower.
I personally would go for the more efficient option.
