Beautiful property - even better than the photos. Fully equipped kitchen. Beautiful grounds and despite being attached to cellar door it was very private. The owner sent all the information for self check in and out promptly and was otherwise hands-off which is always appreciated.
AustraliaHouse size was great and the gardens beautiful and spacious, the separate living areas were comfy and large. The fireplaces were well stacked with wood. The kitchen is large and fully equipped to handle group meals. The pool was very pretty and well maintained and the new BBQ was great. Lots of outdoor seating areas to enjoy the lovely views. The contact with the property great, all contact responses were prompt and friendly.
