  • Terry

    Well equipped. Maybe needs a small garden table and chairs to rear .would definitely stay there again.

  • Elizabeth

    Very comfortable beds and excellent water pressure for shower. Access front and back is very steep so not suitable for young children or adults with decreased mobility. Really enjoyed our stay, thank you.

  • Graham

    Views from the front are awesome. We had an issue with the hot water, but the owner moved rapidly and considerately to resolve this. Steps perhaps too steep for older people (and toddlers). We'd stay again!
