If there was a 4.5 star we would rate it this.We would like a few more pots and pans to cook with.The wood fire wasn't working which we were looking forward to, and the TV upstairs also wouldn't turn on.Other that these couple of things, it is a beautiful comfortable home, and we really enjoyed our stay.
