Thank you so much for your feedback! I’m glad the house was a great fit for your family reunion and that you found it warm, spacious, and well equipped :)
Clean, lovely, warm, homely. Thanks!Only slight thing is the front door locks need fixing/replacing as it took a lot of jiggling and fiddling to be able to unlock the doors.
