    Very warm and friendly welcome from Julia, the host. Great location within walking distance on a scenic route to town centre. Beautiful garden and comfortable communal areas which felt inviting and homely.

    For £150 a night, we would expect the host to iron the bed linen and offer a decent breakfast.

    The room was dated and the facilities quite basic, with random furnishings and no bedside table or shelf. The bed linen was not ironed which is just unacceptable. The bath towels weren’t great either and no hand towels available. Breakfast was again very basic, continental and self service, absolutely nothing homemade and no nice touches to make it at least interesting, especially if not prepared to cook for guests.

    The location was ideal for our trip. We just needed a bed for one night while visiting friends who lived nearby.

    Honestly, the only thing we would say is pint glasses for water, but that's only because we're used to having a pint glass of water next to us for bed.

    Wonderful host, wonderful room. We got the deluxe double suite and it was so cosy! Had everything we needed!

    The host took forever to answer the door,,I apologised for being a little early and she very rudely opened the front door and walked away. She was very passive aggressive and used awful language during a discussion about the reduction of rooms available. Very unprofessional!! No breakfast or coffee available No patio area outside the room Rooms are very small and clustered

    Not alot to like. No coffee was made in the morning and very little choice of continental breakfast. No out door patio area connected to the room as quoted and described on booking.com Very disappointed on arrival

    Tiny bathroom with no light over the mirror and no plug in the basin. No extractor fan in the bathroom. No socket for the hairdryer anywhere near the mirror. Only one bedside light. Plastic flowers everywhere including outside in the garden. All the windows were dirty, and also the glass top to the table in the garden. Self service breakfast with limited choice.

    I really can't find a fault with the place.

    Breakfast(not cooked!) was plentiful and varied, for food and drinks. And Julia made it clear if we needed anything further to just ask. Rooms also had tea making facilities. rooms were a good size, and well furnished for our needs. Bathroom was clean, and I was glad that she explained how to use the shower, as there was a button to press just above the tap. I felt it was ideal for our needs. even the parking wasn't a challenge if you're careful.

    ROOM - Poor lighting in the bathroom & none over the only mirror in bedroom, electric shower very difficult to regulate, no electric outlet close enough to allow use of the mirror whilst drying hair. Plastic mini coffee creamer cartons expired in January 2021 & were thick & lumpy, thankfully the host also provided fresh milk. HOSTS - Julia & her son James are 2 of the friendliest hosts one could imagine, but that’s not always a positive attribute. On arrival we were advised that due to Covid, contact with our hosts would be limited, but contrary to this advice, we found their friendliness & willingness to offer help & assistance at every possible opportunity somewhat overbearing - we couldn’t move about the place outside of our room without one of the hosts appearing with offers of assistance, almost to the point that we felt we were being watched & weren’t trusted. At times it was quite uncomfortable, particularly when returning around midnight & seeing the upstairs blinds twitching as we got out of our taxi, then to be greeted by James who had come downstairs to let us in the front door - why did you give us a key?! Maybe it’s just us & we read it wrong, we were the only guests staying - maybe had there been other guests their attention would have been shared around. We prefer our privacy, to be left to ourselves to get on with what we’re doing.

    Lovely location, great size room, plenty of facilities for refreshments.

    The only negative was the steep driveway but I parked on the road, so not really a problem.

    Julia was an amazing host, so warm, friendly and chatty - we felt like we were staying with an old friend. The garden was lovely and it would be lovely to stay in the summer and make use of it properly. The bedroom was calming with lovely decor, everything we needed and such a comfy bed and pillows.

    Serve yourself breakfast. It was a hot day and we needed the bedroom window open for cooling/ ventilation but had to close because the host and/or other guests were talking in the garden until past midnight.

    Good size room and bathroom. Comfortable and clean. Good facilities in room.

    We would have appreciated a little more private, quiet time.

    The Continental breakfast was fine and provided everything we normally have at home. It was available at any time during our three day stay, as was the use of the patio and garden as well as the lounge.
