Beautiful home with ample space for an amazing girls weekend. From early morning coffee on the front porch - to afternoons soaking in the hottub after biking or hiking the Mines of Spain trails - to evening dinners in the screened in porch smelling the fresh flowers and sipping wine - to top notch communication from the owners. We would all recommend this home to our friends.

Only reason for 4 stars was due to some of the steep roads to get to the house. Bedrooms were very bright during the night with the street lights and during the morning. We loved the house and it was so charming!

Enjoyed Our Stay

We enjoyed our stay at this well-kept clean attractive historic house with ample modern conveniences. There was plenty of room for the seven guests, including four bedrooms, chatting on the side porch, some watching the Olympics on TV and a great ample dining room table. We would easily recommend this house to others as well as the owners/hosts who were prompt in communication.
