The house was lovely as was the gardens. As we stayed 6 nights we were upgraded to the room with the 4 poster bed. Which was lovely. Te breakfast was freshly made every morning from local sourced producers. The hosts, Lee and Lyn were very friendly and welcoming. The only thing I could find fault with was the shower. The hot water took ages to come through and was not powerful enough. Otherwise a lovely place to stay.
