Methven accommodation
We were in Methven for a family wedding and the friends who were with us are old family friends. The house was large and accommodated us all easily. However, the single bedroom mattress and queen sized mattress felt quite old and wobbly and I had to sleep on the sofa as every time my husband turned over, I felt I was being wobbled around and couldn’t sleep. Otherwise, we were very pleased with our time there. Thank you.
