    The space
    THIS IS A HISTORICAL HOME, built on post, beams & timbers over 250 years old, AND ALTHOUGH it can house a lot of guests (because of the bunk rooms in the walkout level) the MAX ADULT OCCUPANCY IS 12.

NO PARTIES, etc putting stress on the older timbers. Recent nail head in flooring due to old timbers and larger groups have been removed and replaced with screws due to problem with prior larger parties.
