We had the absolute best time! The house is huge and stunning. My mother took photos so she can remodel her place exactly the same. Our dogs loved the big backyard and smuggling up to the fireplace (which we had burning nearly constantly as it was so effective at keeping the lounge warm). Honestly couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to stay. Truly magical.
