*Mattress heaters are generally safe, however their correct usage plays an important part in that safety. Please take care not to crumple them as this may cause overheating and therefore a higher risk of fire. Please turn them off during the day, only turning them on a few minutes before use. Only turn them on maximum to heat, then turn them down during use. Preferably turn them on to heat before use and then turn them off during use. Use mattress heaters at your own risk.

Great home!
We loved the Fig Tree house! My children loved playing in the backyard and collecting the figs that fell from the tree. The beds were comfortable (many other properties seem to have very, very firm beds), and the rooms in the back of the home were quiet at night. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!
