With the sudden snow it could easily have been longer, and one of our party was forced to stay an extra night because of it (she didn't mind too much). The house somehow managed to be cosy and warm even while it was -4 outside with snow on the ground even before we lit the log burner. Its a very peaceful , well equipped place with a hot rub in the snow and the milky way above being one of the highlights.
