A great place to stay. As a couple we had all the rooms for our use, kitchen area, couldn't have asked for anything, everything was provided, including milk, which wasn't long life. Could not find a single thing to complain about. Queen bed wow we had an amazing sleep. Even our 2 dogs slept well. Breakfast was provided. Everything any guests needed was provided. Shower was fantastic. Christine thank you for providing, a great place for weary travellers to stay. We wish you all the best, your a great host, one of the best places we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many, but your place is faultless. Thank you Rod and Jenny

Floor boards creaky.

Floor boards creaky and you can hear others walking around when trying to sleep. Don’t like the big step up into the shower.
