    Host phoned whilst en route to property to warn of snow on the roads and advised best route, they had also put the heating on so the house was toasty *and* left fresh milk and chocolate biscuits.

    Lovely location and stay with great character. Had a love/hate relationship with the creaking. Lol. Mostly love though; cute character. Internet good enough to work/conferences; minimal disturbance.
