Summary: We had a great stay! The house was funky and cute and had plenty of space for us and another family. The kids loved the big field and catching an endless supply of grasshoppers. They also loved the big climbing tree and swings. The outside was nice to sit and drink your coffee and let the kids run wild. The town was close and had some great little restaurants and icecream shops.
