A great place to stay house very well laid out
Some glasses were in short supply as we invited 4 friends for drinks. One glass was badly chipped and we left it on the window shelf. However the stay was very comfortable and we would recommend it while heartedly

Awesome base for skiing at Mt Hutt
The house was perfect for us. Plenty of space for our family of 5.
Clean and well maintained. The kitchen had everything we needed, including oil and salt (that we always forget).

As Described
I didn’t actually get to stay there, thanks COVID you suck, but my friends tell me that the place was as described. Comfy and close to the pub, apparently that was a pre-requisite.
Every group has that one guy who likes to complain mine said that the heating could be better but they live in a furnace so take that comment with a grain of salt.
Next time I might be able to stay a night, but I need to say thanks on my mates behalf.
