PLEASE NOTE: this is an 1830’s country home—it is quite old and well-loved and looks as much, so if you're expecting polished perfection it may not be for you. Additionally, we have regular Terminix visits but there’s no silver bullet and the occasional mouse is just a part of country living. If you leave food out on the counters you will attract mice and insects. If you are uncomfortable with any of this, please do not book our home. We promise we won’t be offended ;)
