Charming Historic Home

What a quaint and charming house in this historic part of the country. We were treated to a visit by a family of deer on both days! Jacqueline was so communicative and an excellent hostess! Thanks so much for sharing your house with us!

Great countryside location

It’s a lovely old house in a beautiful spot, we really enjoyed staying here. Pet friendly, and our pup had a good time too. Location is great for walks. Lovely seeing deer walk past the yard! Nearest grocery store is about 15min by car in Deposit, and if you need a wide selection, might be good to stock up ahead at a larger store. Also note that if you’re planning more extensive cooking, check ahead of time - the kitchen had all the basics, but not some tools like cutting boards or garlic press. Overall a lovely place and Jackie was a great host!
