Our Story

Guest in the King Mary House, March 2026

Marc

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Sydney’s fabulous historic farmhouse! From start to finish, Sydney was a top-notch host.

The farmhouse itself is the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. It’s beautifully maintained, thoughtfully designed, and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. You truly get the best of both worlds: cozy countryside character with all the modern amenities.

We loved every single moment of our stay—from the peaceful surroundings to the little details that made it feel like home. And yes… we already miss the cows!

"The perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort."

Our experience with Sydney and her house is what Airbnb should model as the “standard” requirement for all participating owners…We’ve stayed in 40+ rental properties across ABnB (and other) and this was the closest to perfection that my family and I have experienced! Kudos to Sydney and their level of care and detail.

Sydney is an incredible host! She thought of every detail inside the house. And the house is absolutely perfect. It was spotlessly clean. We used the kitchen extensively, and everything was modern and pristine. The beds and bedding were comfortable. The sunroom was peaceful and such a relief after daily meetings. The house sits off the main road in such a way that it feels like it's hidden in the woods. It's surrounded by trees and backyard animals (rabbits, squirrels, birds). We can't wait to stay here again!
