Great location.
Great location. Bay window was as beautiful as it looked, especially in the mornings. Unfortunately there was no working T.V, no WiFi and we didn’t have bed sheets for the guest bed. Other than that the place was cozy, warm and all round pretty homely.
Perfect location to enjoy the snow. Well presented with a beautiful fireplace with a view - firewood included!No coffee machine as advertised, unfortunately.
Great location on Dinner Plain with a lovely outlook from the living area. House is well equipped, clean and functional. It has a good laundry/ drying room. Really warm and cosy. Communication from host and check in was seamless. We had young kids aged 3-6 - the house and location were perfect.
