Cozy Lockwood house between town and junction. Beautiful in summer, and utterly special next to the wood burner on a winter's evening. Not to mention the heat pump and the front deck spa! Library and DVD collection available for your use for those indoor days. Fenced back garden for kids. Large covered deck for bikes and skis/boards. Towels and bed linen provided. The house is an 80's Lockwood, so has a certain rustic, cabin vibe. If you want ultra modern, probably best look elsewhere..
