"We really liked this property - the rooms are spacious and comfortable, the linen in the bedrooms were of especially good quality. For such a large house, the heating and hot water systems worked especially well. The many bathrooms had instant water and there was none of the fiddling that you sometimes have to contend with. We will certainly try to rent this property again."
