"It felt like staying the night at a friend's. Highly recommended."

10.0

Steve, the host, was amazing. Upon entering he made me feel right at home and offered me a cup of tea. He then booked a taxi for me to get to a nearby village and even said he'd take me there himself if he didn't have his own plans that night. The accommodation was very clean, and I hope to return some day to try out the hot tub!

The owner. Steve, was more than accommodating and friendly, there were free eggs, toast cereal and coffee for breakfast, and the location was right in the middle of town. What a great stay!

L'accoglienza dell'host è stata fantastica, ci ha aspettato sull'uscio di casa e ci ha salutato con entusiasmo. Stanze pulite e posizione centralissima.

Cucina leggermente in disordine.

"Cosy, comfortable stay in quirky school house, run by a fantastic owner!"

10.0

We loved the quirkiness of the property. Our room was a very comfortable double, and Steve goes above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. He even made my boyfriend a coffee to help his hangover in the morning 😂. Thank you for everything Steve, keep up the good, hard work and see you next time! Kelly and Ceri.
