charming stay!

easy accessamazing walksdifficult door

i had a decent sized room, and i really loved that the bus stop was right outside! it was so easy to get around. the coastal and country walks nearby were amazing and started right outside the door! i appreciated that the staff were very good, too!

the door was a bit difficult to lock, and i did have to ask for a top up of milk and coffee. that was slightly inconvenient.

helpful staffdelicious breakfastconvenient bus stopsmoke issue

I was charmed by the helpfulness of the staff. A kind gentleman offered me a lift to the ferry, which i found kind! breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented. I enjoyed the fresh, local flavors. i also liked that there was a bus stop right outside.

Unfortunately, my room was located above the area where people smoked outside. With the windows open because of the heat, the smoke entered the room, which wasn't ideal.
