Testimonials
Absolutely a wonderful and peaceful place to stay, wonderful choice of breakfasts, Debs and her family and parents could not do enough for us, their information pack was spot on with everything you needed to know, will certainly vist again.
Excellent cake and coffee, as it was Easter, the crème egg bombs were amazing, we were trying to deconstruct the recipe! Lovely baking. Very friendly attentive and accommodating, will go back next time to sample lunch (also looked appetising !)
Great location. Fabulous breakfast. Comfortable room. We had a very warm welcome and had everything we needed for a wonderful short break. The view from the room was perfect. The pub next door was a huge bonus!
