Stay in a charming heritage house full of character, with a super-comfy bed and electric blanket to keep you cosy through the winter days. Unwind by the open fireplace with a glass of wine, then head out for dinner with local wineries and bars...

We adored all aspects of the property. The building was a home filled with memorabilia, the gardens were beautiful… the transported dance studio is breathtaking and the hosts were two of the nicest people we have ever met.
