Reviewer Comments:
Was good to have a big enough property to stay in next door to relatives.
A huge 1883 historic home full of charm, stylish old furniture and glorious views over the valley. 90% was fabulous about our stay. The house could use a bit of TLC as some light globes needed changing, a few cobwebs and dirty old outdoor furniture. Look past that and it’s a special place to stay.
