All was very good. Bottle of dish soap was watered down…but that’s a very minor thing. Overall we really enjoyed the stay. Would book again.
Winter wonderland.  My parents owned a house on this lake when I was a teenager.

We had a lovely 3 night stay at Anthony’s property. It was quiet and comfortable with plenty of space to enjoy the outdoor areas. The accommodation provided all the basics in the kitchen and we loved the big windows overlooking the water.
