"We had a lovely comfortable night here & would have loved to of stayed a few more nights."

9.0

The lovely atmosphere, friendly people from all walks of life.

The only thing was our accommodation was out the back & we had to park our car at the front & drag our bags through the house out to the back, as the closest carpark was full. It probably was a bit trickier as it was raining heavily & my 80 year old mum was with me.

Quirky place, lots of thought gone into making it interesting.

People outside talking on the hammocks at 3 in the morning. (not the fault of the staff)
