The home was lovely with an exquisite attention to detail. Providing portable chairs, a fully equipped picnic basket and blanket made our evening at Tanglewood extra special. We even had the pleasure of being greeted several mornings by a pair of rabbits - so cute! We’d definitely stay at this beautifully restored historic Berkshire home again.

The house itself was nice, but the listing was inaccurate. It says there is central ac, but there are only window units in the bedrooms. Luckily we identified the inaccuracy ahead of time, and asked for an ac unit to be added to the main floor. At first they said no, but thankfully installed one ahead of our visit. There was a heatwave during our visit, and the house was more than 90 degrees inside when we arrived. With all of the ac units turned on, it finally cooled down by the next morning. It’s also worth noting that the 4th bedroom is in the attic with steep stairs, no handrail, and no window shades. The house is historic and old - some charming, and some dangerous. On 2 different occasions, individuals in our party got stuck in a bathroom and a bedroom. Thankfully the handyman came to fix the doors and a few other house issues the next day. The spaces are nice for gathering together and the house is well stocked. Once they iron out the issues, it will be a much nicer stay.
