    We provided our own meals. The house was in an excellent and peaceful location and very suitable for walking and exercising our dog. Very well equipped and well heated. A selection of things to do was available and a welcome bottle of wine.

    Able to check in through lock box. The house was warm on arrival on a cold day. The house was comfortable and had enough towels. I liked the introductory notes left for us and the little Christmas card and milk.
