Why we require two reviews to book ~ After any Airbnb stay, you will write a review on your stay and the host will also write a review on your care of their home as well as your level of communication, following the house rules etc. The point of the reviews for the host is to determine the level of cleanliness and respect of property that guests showed in previous stays. (Note: many Airbnb listings like ours are not investment properties but private homes with treasures, that people, like us, wish to share.) Likewise, the reviews written about us by our guests provide you with important information... is the property is clean? were the hosts considerate?... the stay is worth the money? We have over 125, 5-star reviews for you to feel secure about booking this space with us while we only require two from you. Don't take it personally...we don't know you and that is the point : ) ! Home Limitations: Is this a good fit? Guests who are large in size (vertical or horizontal) will not be comfortable in this space...the toilet stall is very narrow, antique chairs small and 'fragile', tight spaces include: bedroom sleeping nook, pass-through to bar, kitchen cooking/seating area & dining area. Few low doorways. Will this property ever be for sale? We are at retirement age...so sadly for us it is this year it is up for sale... which is why our booking options are staggered. No guest will be cancelled or face 'new owners'. If you are in the market to live a fantasy dream come true, request info in advance when you book by sharing your home address. A purchase by a guest will include a refund for your stay at closing. Guest access Guests are encouraged to 'free-range'! Other things to note *You will be required to agree to and sign the House Rules and Hold Harmless Agreement at check-in. Please, pre-read the 'Rules' in the listing and the 'Manual', which is under 'House Manual' section and will it be available when you book and in the house when you arrive. *No day guests or children allowed on the property. *CHECK-IN: 3 TO 6PM.
