The B&B & location was absolutely beautiful with the added treat of Caroline!! We had privacy, comfort & everything we could possibly want plus the breakfast & service was outstanding.
We loved everything.

The bed had an electric blanket under the bottom sheet which made the bed cozy as the weather was cold. Bedding was clean. Good parking outside the house. Kettle, tea, coffee, sugar, milk and biscuits provided. Host waited up to show me to my room even though I didn’t arrive until after midnight. Shower gel and hand soap and towel provided.
Could not get any warm or hot water even though I pulled the cord to switch the electric on. Tried all the settings on the electric shower and waited 10 minutes with water running but still no luck. Had a cold shower instead. Old windows in property, especially in bathroom so a chill in the room. Untidy paintwork on walls. Downstairs outside door does not shut properly without banging it so was left ajar/unlocked all nigh do anyone could potentially walk in. All the information the host told me was that someone was in the next room and it felt like she was insinuating that I should be quiet. I explained that I had work early in the morning so would be going to bed shortly anyway.

Lovely welcome from our host. Comfortable bed and good breakfast.
Room small with oversized wardrobe. Shower good, but nowhere to put out toiletries. OK for our short stay.
