Nice place for a cold wet week on the island. The fireplace was a ripper. Cosy, comfortable beds & a well stocked kitchen

Was a wonderful property, had lots of games and things to do. Only thing was not enough hearing, got quiet. My dogs are also small and could get under the house from the backyard, so that made things more difficult.
