Very satisfied for the price we paid.

9.0

Room size. The cooked breakfast. The big bed. The views from the window. Tray for hot drinks and biscuits. Cleanliness. Fan provided. Lots of pillows. For the discounted price we had we were very pleased. The smell of breakfast cooking! The garden to wander around. Would use again as a stopover definitely.

If we'd paid the full price I'd have a few niggles. I'm not a radio/music person so the radio on with it's background thud in the morning wasn't my thing but my daughter didn't notice it until I said. It was during the holidays so perhaps there was guests elsewhere or children at home and that's tricky to manage. However, the accompanying smell of breakfast cooking made up for it. Some of the towels looked a bit worn with little holes. Saying that, I'd go again for an overnight at a similar price if travelling but I'd recommend it with caveats if it was for a special occasion at the full price.

Large bright bedroom, with a very comfortable bed. Nice setting looking over fields, with a small but clean outside pool which was a delight on a hot day. Ample and excellent breakfast.

Pleasant rural location

8.0

Quiet location, easy to find and to park, large bedroom with comfy bed. Outdoor pool. Water pressure in bathroom very good.

Pool had quite a few leaves in. Sun loungers provided, the hard plastic slatted type, but no cushions. When I asked about cushions I was provided with extra bath towels and a throw cushion for padding. It’s unusual to have to be ordering exactly what you want for breakfast the day before, but I understand that, as a small establishment, they don’t wish to waste food. On the ground floor, in the kitchen, there is a tv constantly on, and there was in the breakfast room also. This noise I found irritating and off putting. I am also nervous of dogs and didn’t like the loose Dalmatian being around. Although the bedroom was large and the bed comfortable, I’m glad I wasn’t sharing it - it seemed quite narrow. WiFi poor.
