Alison was an excellent host. She made us feel very welcome and even gave us a free upgrade. The room had everything you need and the bed was comfy. Top marks for the breakfast the following morning. Added bonus was the free onsite parking.

Paul

Room was okay for the price, some communication issues about breakfast, we booked breakfast for 10am not realising that checkout was also 10. I asked if we could pay for a later checkout so that we could allow our breakfast to digest but was bluntly refused. It felt unnecessary as they only have 4 rooms to clean before 3pm. We will not stay there again.
