We made a last minute decision to attend a concert in nearby Lunenburg, and were absolutely delighted when we pulled into the driveway and realized what a gem we would be staying in. Diane and Chris are generous hosts, sharing this incredible place they are lovingly restoring - the house was wonderful and the property a wonderland of trees and bushes from around the world. It is a special space, made more so by the convenient location close to beautiful beaches, a great pizza spot and historic towns and communities within minutes.
