    “The house is really beautiful and the views are stunning from nearly all the rooms.”

    . we stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed everything there, the kitchen is well equipped with mostly everything you need, the games room has some lovely games for all ages, the outdoor and the seating area was great. It has webber bbq and a pizza stone oven. There are some notes I would like to share for future improvement, the mattresses of the bunk beds are flat and uncomfortable unlike other rooms with comfy and luxurious mattresses with electric blankets. We found 4 used bath towels hung behind ...

    . we stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed everything there, the kitchen is well equipped with mostly everything you need, the games room has some lovely games for all ages, the outdoor and the seating area was great. It has webber bbq and a pizza stone oven. There are some notes I would like to share for future improvement, the mattresses of the bunk beds are flat and uncomfortable unlike other rooms with comfy and luxurious mattresses with electric blankets. We found 4 used bath towels hung behind the bunk bedroom’s door, it looks like the cleaners didn’t see them while cleaning after the previous guests! One important thing to note is never to leave the doors open because we saw a mouse in the mouse trap in the living area near the TV on our first day. The outdoor spa was awesome we really enjoyed it. Overall it a was great stay and one of the best places we’ve ever stayed in :)
