Pleasant large home with extensive lawns

Our team of 15 teachers stayed for one night while up North on a professional development weekend. The house was a convenient location and a good size. Our only disappointment was that some rooms were locked meaning that our teachers had to share beds. We had anticipated that the entire house would be available to us and therefore extra beds and bedrooms in the cottage. Other than that we had a lovely stay. The home is spacious with a lovely garden outlook. The kitchen is very basically equipped but was sufficient for us and the host communicated well.

The host was welcoming and nice. We have a mix group between 7 to 82 year olds. The place was fully equiped. Plenty of outdoor and indoor entertainment for the kids. Pleanty of space for the adult to relax. The house is very specious for 12 people. Nice deck area for BBQ and big dinning room. We enjoyed our stay. We will book again if we have a big group.
