A country gem! Small and tidy and adorable, with every comfort thought of - almost like being on a ship. I've been in much bigger places that weren't as well equipped. Hester, who lives in the adjacent house, couldn't have been nicer about answering questions & even lending us a pitcher of milk. It's terribly romantic, with candles encouraged, and the little iron stove a treat. Deep in the country, down a mile of dirt road. Beautiful.
