Great little place.
Great little place. As the weather was bad, we did a lot of stying in. Perfect for a couple. But I’d say a family hmm a push. There wasn’t anything that the owner wouldn’t do for us. Very very accommodating. Not a lot around the area except for pubs. The train and bus station is almost on the doorstep. Fabulous and would 10000% use this place again. Thank you.
