This was a perfect place for our group of friends who knew each other for 50 years. We could cook, go out to eat, enjoy walks, read, and have hours-long talks. We loved looking at all Penny’s collections—they were quite amazing! We only had two sunny days in our week, but the house was perfect for enjoying any kind of weather. Very spacious and homey.The beautiful piano was a bonus! (One note of caution: Before arriving I thought this place might work for my family get-together in the fall, but with my niece’s three rambunctious boys (10,7,4) I would be really nervous about potential damage or destruction of multiple precious objects! The description welcomes children, but I’d say that it might not be the best for kids who run around and are wild.)
