Catherine's place was great for our needs. We have a toddler and Catherine provided us a portacot (i.e. portable crib), high chair and toys, which were much appreciated. She even provided extra toys once we arrived. The property also has a swing set, slide, etc., and my son enjoyed getting to know Einstein, the family dog (the cat was more elusive). The decor/furnishings are a bit on the old fashioned side and sometimes I wondered if we were disturbing the family (since the unit is pretty much connected to the main house). However, we spent a lot of time outside since we had a car with us, so this was a great, functional base for us and I'm glad we found it on short notice.
