Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda W. 19 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gorgeous house We had a lovely stay at this beautifully designed property. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully equipped. Lots of nooks to read a book and it had a huge television. It was super quiet and absolutely lovely to be surrounded by so many trees. We were asked to bring our own firewood which was fine, but would have been nice to have it supplied given the property was quite expensive. Also a minor comment that the outside needed some maintenance and cleaning. I imagine it must be hard to keep up a property of that size and the skylights and windows would be difficult to clean, so it’s not really a criticism, more something to note for when the weather gets warmer so other guests can enjoy the outside areas. ##### Linda W.
