Absolutely beautiful property! The house is really comfortable and rich with history. I loved sitting on the porch watching the sunset and walking the lovely grounds! Comfy beds, great kitchen, stunning grounds and lots of fun smells for my dog! They even had spare dog bowls if you forgot yours! Really thoughtful and responsive hosts, too. Amazing getaway and easy to recommend!
