Summary: Absolutely fantastic experience in the middle of pastures, with birds singing, star studded skies, cat visiting, and a sweet hostess. For adventurous and sentimental people it would be great. Arrive before sunset. Fresh and clean linen and towels. If you are looking for hotel style accommodations, that is not for you.
