Pet Friendly We know that pets are part of the family, so they are welcome, with prior approval. A pet fee of $100 per pet, per stay, applies.
Guests have access to the whole house except for a few cupboards that are used for storage. You will find a yellow folder which contains tourist information and the house manual. Otherwise, I will leave you to enjoy yourselves in peace.
While we have plenty to entertain you, this is not a party house. Please be considerate of the neighbours and keep noise to a minimum. Quiet hours are between 10pm and 8am. Thanks.
