Typical country cottage. Lovely garden. Very homely feel for breakfast and very friendly host.

Awkward exit from car park onto main road, although host helped by standing in the road to see when it was clear to exit.

This property is a quaint cottage, we stayed in the ground floor en-suite room, the room was a very good size and offered everything you need, very clean and today. The owner was fabulous, nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend- 10/10!
