Love it if you do, but if not, I do keep some wood here for you.

You will see the place to start your fire at the back of the sauna. Just start your fire, close the door, and check it in about 1/2 hour to make sure you have a good fire and to see if it needs more wood. It takes about an hour to reach the ideal temperature for a sauna, so allow it time. Just make sure the backfire door is always closed. Don’t worry about putting the fire out. It will go out on its own.
-
Ensure that the umbrellas, furniture, and any flammable items are kept away from the pit. Best if the umbrellas are down. Have a water source and a metal stick nearby to move the wood in the pit.
Don’t build the fire too high or add more wood than you need for the length of time you'll be there. Please put the fire out when you leave.

perfect after wedding location!

getaway for hubby and ME!
“My husband and I had such a lovely stay at Cathy's. Cathy is a lovely, thoughtful, and artsy person; much thought was put into the beautiful accommodation in which we stayed. Nothing was overlooked to make our stay comfortable. Cathy has an artistic flair, and this is evident not only inside but also outside, particularly in the garden areas of the property. Our accommodation was absolutely lovely and super clean, it was a shame our stay was so short as I would have loved to stay longer at this wonderful gem of an Airbnb.”
Sandra
This place is AMAZING and has everything you need.
“Honestly, one of the best B&Bs I have stayed at. Cathy’s hospitality and the well-thought-out home were beyond my expectations. Will definitely be coming back for our stay. Thank you, Cathy!”

FAMILY LOVED IT FOR SISTER’S BIRTHDAY PARTY!
“There’s nothing I could complain about! THIS PLACE IS A FIVE-STAR! My family and I loved every moment we spent here. The purpose of this trip was for me to celebrate my sister’s 30th birthday, and Cathy definitely made that happen! Starting from clean rooms to the spacious property that was not only aesthetically pleasing but so functional in every possible way. LOVED IT! We will definitely come back again!”
