the staff seemed fine.
The room was smaller than advertised on the website. it barely had space for the bed and a small side table. My suitcase had to stay in the bathroom. the breakfast was disappointing. The sausages tasted cheap, and the eggs were overcooked. i expected better for the price i paid.

delicious foodgreat breakfasthelpful staffexcellent directions
The evening meal was very good, a real treat after a long day. Breakfast also impressed me. The quality was superb. Staff gave us excellent directions for a local walk around a big wood. It was a very enjoyable walk and I recommend it.
I noticed several steps to climb to get into the building, which could pose a slight issue for some guests.
