) - and nice property. We were there at Christmas so it was too cold to use the generous outdoor space, but found the property better, if anything, than we were expecting (might be worth including a floor plan in the property details to explain the layout?). Very grateful for the efforts to prepare the house for our arrival and the little gifts waiting for us. Thank you.
