The property has so much going for it. There is plenty of space for lots of guests (we had 6 adults and 5 kids) and had beds to spare. The kitchen is very well equipped and the huge fire was a novelty & kept the house warm. The house has a lot of character and charm. The animals are lovely and it is really nice being off the beaten track.
We were disappointed with the general cleanliness of the place though and it is something that needs to be addressed in order for guests to enjoy all that the property has to offer. We like a rustic vibe, but the furniture is very old and felt dirty and the outdoor areas were covered in building materials which prevented us from sitting on the verandas & enjoying the views. The hot tub is also a long trek from the house and the water is brown (so is all the water that runs in the house) which we weren’t expecting when we booked. Overall we had a really lovely time at the house and liked so much about it, but a few little things cleaned up would make a big difference in the overall experience.
