It's quite out-of-the way from the city and if you're not familiar with the location, it can be quite scary to drive through the small roads. After dark you're pretty much going to want to stay in the property only. But overall it's an amazing place, well worth the drive. The peace and quiet is so refreshing and really worth the travels. Having a piano was fantastic and we used it quite a bit!
