The property was very homely, lovely room with book theme and comfy beds. Nice bathroom with modern shower. Living room downstairs to use was also very cosy and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, all local produce and even went out of their way to get the Rice Krispies that we asked for because they had run out.
