The host Alicia is so knowledgable about the house she has lovingly transformed to welcome guests, but she is also a great cook, the breakfast was enough to set us up for the rest of the day.
We thought we were getting a room, but we got half a cottage! We would love to come back when we have more time.
- Jodie (9/5): A welcoming retreat with great amenities, exceptional comfort, and a superb breakfast! - An outstanding place to stay. Snug, spotless and inviting. Beautifully decorated to a high standard. The bathroom is spacious with an amazing jacuzzi bath and impressively large walk-in shower. The lounge area was cozy and comfortable and the bedroom was warm and inviting. Breakfast was superb. There was not really any dislikes. If I had to be really picky I would say that the TV in the lounge could do with being a little larger but that is just my personal choice.
