Magical historical building, run like an old fashioned B&B- like stepping back in time in the most wonderful way! Communal meals, genuine connection with guests, a feeling of being at home.

"Paid for room but did not stay"

1.0

Nothing at all…. Host very rude & emailed NO ELECTRICITY in ‘summer house/cabin’ & offered upgrade & NO REFUND because it was not suitable for us in 70’s & 80’s When I asked why sent email immediately we’d booked advising this & said false advertising on website Mary the host said she would update website to advise no electricity. No happy at all with her attitude & her unreasonable policy to not refund within minutes of booking One expects in this day & age any summer house/ cabin would have electricity or should be advertised as a outdoor SHED with no power at all

Never stayed there & hope others don’t get ripped off the same…… quick $115 for her to just advise minutes later in email No power & would we like to upgrade to room in their home for more money!!!!!’
