This house was truly AMAZING! The location was fantastic. It was rural, quiet, peaceful and tranquil. Great position for exploring, well equipped with everything we needed, clean and comfortable. And that roll top bath after a long day of walking is heaven! Couldn't ask for any more. We will definitely be back.
