Quiet location and lovely surroundings. Solid breakfast. Unfortunately we had booked a room with a bath tub rather than shower which I did not realise at the time.

The room was very clean. The house is old and interesting. The garden is beautiful. The dogs are sweet. Best of all was the warmth and friendliness of Pru, the owner. We would definitely return again if in the area.
