GUEST REVIEW
"Fiona is such a lovely host. She likes to communicate with her guests but you can also have your own time and space. Even on short notice, she was welcoming to host us for the same day. Everything was comfortable and clean. Amazing house with nice details in a quiet place far away from the noisy highway. Absolutely recommended place to stay."
