A little more storage in the bedrooms would be good. We had a problem with the boiler on the last evening, but the owner, Russell, came out very quickly to sort it out for us.

I personally did not like the old bike stuck onto the wall with what reminded me of old bandages wrapped round it although I accept decorations are a matter of taste. Also the top bedroom has two windows but no blinds on them which should be in place to block the light at night time

Warm reception from hosts. Would like to return when Covid permits.
