Every thing was clean, tidy and organized, there’s heat pumps in the rooms with easily accessible controls. They left a sweet note on check in and check in and check out was a breeze! We missed breakfast due to a tight schedule and the hosts offered breakfast parfait’s to go. I’m extremely happy with my stay and will stay again

Highly recommend August House. The rooms in this heritage home are clean and beautiful with a minimalist, pine aesthetic. The breakfast is buffet with local bread, granola, berries, scrambled eggs, etc. The staff are very helpful. There is a sauna and several shared spaces. The rooms have no TV. The bed was very comfortable and the tub was deep.

Incredible guest house with several rooms, many common spaces including a common room with a record player and an amazing selection of vinyl records. Rooms seem recenrly remodeled, very functional, nice bed (soft). There was a community fridge with ice available, and ice pops, as well as nespresso coffee and milks for the morning. Plus, they serve the a full continental breakfast (homemade granola, yogurt, fixings, hardboiled eggs, salami, procuito, cheese, toast, etc, juice coffee) in this large hall. The grounds have lots of places ro sit and a gas fire ring. A great place to stay!
