tender moments in the countryside

cozy roomcomfortable bedfreshly cooked breakfastdark paint

i found a very cozy room with a huge, comfortable bed it was perfect. staff are friendly, and there was ample parking available. breakfast was freshly cooked i liked the tea, coffee, and milk in my room. shower is in bath, with an anti slip mat.

the room i stayed in could use some lighter paint because it was quite dark. there was also poor lighting in the room, which didnt help much at all. a simple coat of magnolia paint would brighten it up.
