Good location and very cozy. A parking spot is available behind the house for your stay. The main bedroom and bathroom is on the main first floor, and the extra twin beds are up on the loft. We had some trouble with the keypad entry, our fault, and host was responsive quickly. Pet friendly, no relieving in the garden, but the area is easily walkable for dog walking.
