Perfect location for walking holiday, clean room with pub close by for evening meal. Big garden situated next to the river for relaxation.

Needed to call owner on phone for check in, check out. Car park was co-used for day travellers so might be difficult to find a spot on busy days.

Beautiful setting with river at he bottom of the garden in a stunning location.

Sadly very bad traffic noise and no double glazing. Clearly the property is in need of refurbishment.

In een woord SLECHT.

5.0

De ligging aan het riviertje, de tuin en de pub aan de overkant. De host was vriendelijk maar niet capabel om een B & B te runnen.

Het slechte onderhoud van de accommodatie, de rommel, het was niet klaar om betalende gasten te ontvangen. Ik zou het niemand aanraden.

The room was very awkwardly shaped and the floor made us feel dizzy with the floor being slanted.
