    Stayed for 2 weeks in November. House was lovely and warm. The living room gas fireplace warmed the room up quickly after we came in from long walks. Nice walk to Ruival on trail from bottom of driveway. Lovely views out windows. Kitchen well equipped. Nice shower and bedrooms warm and cosy, nice central location for exploring on a nice quiet road. Hope to be back!
