The house was extremely clean and had every home comfort imaginable. The beds were very comfortable and the showers were fantastic. Binoculars and a telescope were even provided to look over the surrounding landscape. We were lucky enough to have clear skies during the nights and we're treated to a fantastic star viewing. Breathtaking!
