What a great find! We were 2 families, a total of 9 people, and the kids thought they were staying in a magnificent Italian estate. There was a lot of room to roam around, beautiful hallways...and it was clean! There were a couple of drawbacks - it was raining really hard when we arrived, and we had emailed the hosts of our approximate arrival time. The host was late, however, and was hard to reach. We had to wait in the rain for about 15-20 minutes until she arrived. She apologized profusely, but still, we were wet and tired after having traveled by train to arrive. The other drawback was that it took a lot of back and forth to get one of the heaters to work. There are two heaters in the home (it's quite large) and the one heater for the bedrooms was not working properly. After several text exchanges, the host was able to modify the heater settings remotely to get the heating to work.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the house itself surpassed our expectations.
