    The rooms were large and all the beds were extreeeemly comfortable. The cake and biscuits were great and made for a treat upon arrival. The owners were very friendly when we arrived (make sure you check out all the artwork in the building as most was done by the owner and is really really good). The dogs loved the garden as it was very safe and large enough for them to run around. It is located with in easy reach of lots of attractions if that is your thing or if you are in to walking there are great places to get to. All in all we had a very very pleasant holiday.
