Overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the little welcome treat and wine left by the host.
Thank you for having us. Nothing I can think of.

Lorne Bistro provided an excellent dining experience, offering a memorable meal.

Convenient access to grass is lacking.
Apart from these concerns, the accommodation was satisfactory.
The presence of a dishwasher and laundry facility was appreciated.
