The perfect getaway close by to Christchurch for our family. Francione is very thoughtful and made us feel so welcome and comfortable. Loved spending time by the fire, home cooking in the very well-equipped kitchen, watching movies and playing board games. Beds were super comfortable and warm. Very handy being only a few minutes drive from Sheffield pie shop - yum yum! Excellent communication from our host. Francione went above and beyond our expectations.
