Long garage - might fit two vehicles Don't rely on there being any foody bits and pieces - bring everything - including salt and pepper/cooking oil/paper towels(which I did anyway). Coffee plunger available - so if you want to brew any other way - bring it :-) Overall, a great place to stay ##### Sue M.

Lovely hosts, communication was great and some of us got to meet the owner who was very friendly and took the time to have a chat which was very much appreciated. Thank you John and Lorraine.
