Friendly stay

We were attending a wedding for the weekend. The owner was away but his stand in Nick went out of his way to make us feel welcome and was very friendly. Breakfast was epic and we could decide on the time. A very cosy and comfortable bed, very quiet road even with a front facing room. It suited our needs very well

One night stay but could be a week next time

Lovely clean room with everything we needed. So good to have nice English Breakfast tea and Nescafe Gold coffee in the room. Fresh milk kept in a small fridge was a real bonus. Thank you.
