It was perfect. There were small touches throughout the house, such as milk, jam, eggs, butter, bread etc. You really don't have to bring to much. Also, the fire place is lovely, leave your jumpers at home! It was also my husband's birthday, so I asked Celia if she could put some bday items in the welcome basket. There were balloons, cupcakes, a cold bottle of champagne and even a birthday card. It was a perfect little getaway!
