Mimi made our stay a good one. It was very cold, especially at night. We had the possibility of buying firewood for the fire place but we didn’t. Mimi provided us with extra duvets so we stayed warm. We recommend staying in warmer weather (20C+) unless you are particularly warm blooded, organized enough to make a fire or bring plenty of layers. We would definitely have loved to come in the summer and I think the house would be lovely and cool at that time.
There is a great pool and the surroundings are lovely. There’s some 1 lane streets on the way to the property which was fun! We would recommend having a car although we think you can manage with the train. It’s also very quiet most of the time other than the morning cockerel who provides your wake up (he’s not loud enough to wake you really)!
The place is well looked after and is a big plus in terms of being environmentally friendly and self sustaining. There are oranges on the tree that we were given permission to pick, though we didn’t in the end. It’s a rustic minimalist place with plenty of character and interesting decor.
Mimi was kind enough to print our boarding passes for us and even gave me some lovely little gifts for my birthday which was very thoughtful.
