The setting is amazing and the house itself beautiful, practical, stylish. We had 10 people in our group and there was plenty of room.
We were always warm, the beds were super comfy, and towels and toiletries were excellent.

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review Chris. We are so pleased that you loved the house. Yes, the fires are great to curl up next to on a cooler night and admire the views. Hopefully we will see you again soon.
Such a lovely place for our three generations of family to stay. Serene and quiet with incredible views. A bonus were the children’s books and Legos That were available for our 4 y/o grandson. Plenty of room to play or simply just relax. Situated very close to shopping. Major Domo (Poppy in particular) was wonderful to work with. We definitely will book here for our next vacation.
