Peter sent through a very helpful note explaining how to get there, along with some excellent recommendations for walks and places to eat. Jen was a superb host—she went out of her way to make us feel comfortable.

I personally felt privileged to have the opportunity to stay there and could have spent days simply studying the house, the rooms, and the various artefacts. We very much look forward to staying again. Best wishes, The National Tru... I mean, Will and Reet Cons: Not applicable." ~Will
