Lara was a great host. The house is as beautiful as it looks on the pictures, clean, comfortable, well stocked, linens are first rate and beds comfy. Lara let us in a bit early as I wasn't feeling well that day, which was much appreciated. The only minor things I would mention just as an fyi: (a) the single bed is quite short with a footboard - would work for a child or short adult, but wasn't the best for my brother who is over 6 feet (oops!); and (b) the outdoor pool isn't heated. Makes sense as that would be very expensive and bad for the environment, so again, just an fyi rather than a criticism. We would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!!
