The flight of steps to the loft are old granite slabs with a wooden railing. We have done our best to photograph them. Please consider this before booking if non traditional stairs and your footing stability might be a concern. We have no plans to update these stairs due to their aesthetic and historical value. Complementary coffee is available in the loft for your arrival. We are often present on the property and busy with various projects and family things, though there are multiple areas around the property ideal for sitting privately. Tables and chairs are around the yard that you are welcome to pull a chair up to and relax. Kt Other things to note ACCESSIBILITY: The steps to the loft are historic stone steps with uneven tread that are built into the hillside; a couple treads wobble. If mobility or stability are personal concerns, please consider this prior to booking. The kitchenette is a kitchenette, not a full kitchen. There is a single burner, toaster oven, microwave, coffee maker, fridge without freezer. The bathroom and kitchenette are in a shared space. The bathroom door is a curtain. Daybed is just a thin mattress for a window seat. Most people would not enjoy sleeping on it. It’s a daybed, not a night-bed. There is no TV the space. We did that on purpose. Behind the sheer curtains are roll down black-out curtains. Avoid turning on multiple appliances at once to avoid blowing a fuse. Don’t worry about computers, lights - this only applies to things that surge the power when combined like the AC and a hairdryer. We want guests to have a great experience. Please look at the photos and reviews so that you can feel confident that the price value intersects with what would be a comfortable situation for you.
