Loved the open fireplace! And there are plenty of logs. We were very happy with 3 bathrooms and 3 toilets. We were a party of 2 couples and a single friend but we had suffient privacy. The sofaâs are very comfortable. We had a few little technical problems but Adrian was always nearby to help us, responded very quickly.
