Nicola
Great house, very clean & set up with everything you need. Huge kitchen, dining area. Comfortable beds. Enjoyed sitting on the large deck in the sun to enjoy morning coffee. Will definitely come again to stay here. Thanks!
Megan Bibby
Perfect place for our family to holiday - so sunny and warm after a day skiing, with a cosy fire for those chilly nights. Immaculate property with everything you need. Beautiful view of the mountains. Thank you for hosting us.
