I felt like I was staying with friends who I had known a lifetime.

10.0

The view was amazing, being met at the door by their doggo "Mickey" was an extra bonus. I was there 5 nights and by the time I left, it felt more like leaving good friends than leaving a BnB. The place is lavish, Rob and Ian are brilliant hosts and when something goes wrong (I left my phone in a car) it was "all hands on deck" to return it to me. The breakfast was a great way to start the day and the spa and sauna was the perfect way to end the day.

Losing my phone for the night - but not something I can blame on anyone but myself :)
