Wonderful property, and great service from Kim.

We did not have breakfast.

Above expectation for accommodation and hospitality.
Pros:

The entire setup exceeded our expectations. Kim is extremely approachable and helpful. The house is kept in an excellent condition, being built at the turn of the century and it is polished with all new technology and amenities. We cannot wait to come again.

Cons:

There is nothing that we did not like. The estate is large and can possibly involve other activities. The tranquility of the place, closeness to the the town are the main positives. We like it exactly as it is.
