Beautiful, Historic and Private Retreat for Couples-limit 2 people

10/10 Excellent
"The Studio is fully equipped for cooking. Furnishings are beautiful and comfortable. Bed is super comfortable. There is a desk if you need to work. We've only stayed in Winter so haven't made use of the outside deck and furnishings but they seem perfect for grilling and relaxing outside. Debbie is a terrific host.."
