I highly recommend this property and would book it again. Thanks Emilia for allowing us to stay in your property. A great time was had by all. ##### Georgina G.

The house is just out of town nice quiet location but conveniently close to shops.We booked on a weekend that rained constantly and had to change some plans and stay at the house and this place was perfect to be having game tables, chrome cast and a home away from home vibe, we all ended up happy to not go anywere! Planning on booking again in the summertime, though as mentioned this is a really great place for any weather.Also have to mention the ease of communication and friendliness of Emilia throughout the booking process was incredible.Every person had such a great time. Thankyou for everything! ##### Gemma R.
