Relaxing weekend

Megan is an excellent host. The house was warm and ready to go which was lovely on such a wet and miserable night. Loved having a fire which Megan had set up for us. Great spaces, 3 good size bedrooms and in the summer, the deck and backyard would be perfect for outdoor dinners/bbq.
