Loved this quiet property Spotlessly clean and large room. Only slight down would be the size of the bathroom which larger people would find hard to use. We will certainly use again and have already found out about another room to use.

I loved this place. The room was excellent, I was upgraded to a large room. The hosts are lovely people, great to have a hat with. Breakfast was delicious and you could order what you wanted. People with allergies were taken into account. A small thing but the bed linen was so comfortable. I will stay here again.

It needs to be pointed out to potential visitors that there is no lift within the building so disabled people and those with heavy luggage will have difficulty accessing the rooms above the ground floor.
