Lovely location and home

Our stay was very special because of the location and the lovely home. Our hosts were friendly and provided every thing we needed for a 4 night stay including fresh breakfast rolls left on the kitchen island. We did a lot of sightseeing and the house is very convenient to surrounding towns.

Beautiful country setting

This property sits in a beautiful country setting but still just a few minutes from the shops in town. The hosts were wonderful and the house was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. I would definitely recommend this place especially if you have a group of 6-10 people.
