I hosted a sewing retreat for 4 days for 8 women. The house accomodated the 8 of us and our sewing tables well. It is beautifully situated in a lovely, quiet area. It was clean and for the most part adequately equipped. The kitchen/dining area setup is great for hosting small gatherings but we found the kitchen lacking in many necessities, as in missing spoons, melted utensils, no hot pads etc. We made our meals so I took a trip home to pick up things like tea kettle, (which I accidentally left behind when we left), cheese grader, baking pans, more casserole dishes and few other misc. items. Overall, this was a great place for our group and a great value. We plan to visit again but will be better prepared next time.
