Quiet location. Located a few minutes drive to town and beaches. Games and books provided for entertainment. The only criticism would be the musty smell in the house and there were stains on some of mattress protectors and pillows. Suggest bringing own bedding to any future renters . ##### Renee B. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura S. 29 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious house in a quiet street We enjoyed our stay at this property. Great layout of rooms and lots of space. Quiet street 2 mins drive from the Main Street. The house had everything we needed. Lovely big backyard. Mattresses and mattress protectors not in great condition, most need replacing (noticed this when making up beds with the hired linen). Strong musty smell in the house, perhaps due to aging carpet. ##### Laura S.
