With shops, dining, and daily essentials only minutes away, it’s the perfect balance of nature and convenience.

Guest Access

Guests have full access to the back of the property during their stay, which features a serene and mostly private outdoor space with 2 patios, garden and small lawn. The hot tub is shared with the hosts; however, sessions are thoughtfully scheduled to ensure complete privacy during your use. We greatly respect your space and primarily tend to the garden while you’re away, though on occasion, brief access may be required for light maintenance. You may also notice us gardening or enjoying time in the front yard, or hear activity on the deck above during the warmer months.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
We live upstairs with our 9-year-old daughter and our lovable 14-year-old black Lab, Guinness. You might hear footsteps, quiet conversation, or even catch a friendly hello from us or Guinness in the yard! We enjoy a peaceful, quiet lifestyle and spend weekdays at work and school, but if you’re seeking total silence, this might not be the perfect fit. We’re always happy to welcome guests who appreciate a warm, homey atmosphere.

While we warmly welcome families with children, please note that the suite is not fully child-proofed. We do not have child locks on cupboards, furniture secured to walls, or outlet covers throughout the space—though we do provide some plug covers for your convenience.
