GIRLS TRIP!
Four friends celebrating a 50th birthday...This property is amazing! It is beautifully decorated and has everything you would need for a perfect stay. One of the nicest touches was nice, simple white robes for time out at the immaculate hot tub and fire pit. Wood was provided as well! We would recommend this property! A 12 on a scale of 1-10!

Fully furnished with all that you need
This property really had everything that you would need. It was like stepping into someone’s house not just a rental. From kitchen appliances to extra blankets and pillows. You can tell this host thought of it all. Thanks for a great weekend!

Your family will love being together here.
Lovely and comfortable home for family fun and memory making. The hosts thought of everything guests would need. The kitchen is wonderful. We also enjoyed the campfire ring and could see so many stars in the clear night skies! Beautiful countryside surroundings but also close to the town of Bedford with many quaint shops. We enjoyed touring Old Bedford Village, too.

Perfect for our weekend. Nicely accommodated and close to town. Appliances were top of the line. Loved the firepit. Hopefully the fireplace will be operational should we book again.
