Great location

Property needs a little bit of attention... but only a little bit.

Ideal position for my needs as visiting Michaelhouse for a reunion.

Breakfasts were excellent

Peculiar way of making the bed. Apparently no top sheet and duvet very hot. On the second night I discovered the top sheet folded in a square under the duvet/ I removed the duvet and covered the bed with the top double sheet, which I tucked in and then used the throw provided for warmyh and discarded the duvet. Much more comfortable! The housekeeper was very efficient and pleasant. but I would like to have been greeted by the host on arrival
