We were very disappointed on arrival at the Hotel, overall maintenance was much to be desired, the host was scruffy and not very welcoming. …

The house reminds me of my home settings: clean, heated wooden flooring, large kitchen, enormous rooms, plenty of space. The host Jason is a very friendly person and helps to assist you in any possible way! I was late for a check-in time but had no problems with it.It is a great place to forget about the rat race and fully enjoy the moment of peacefulness!Deer walk near the house!
