"Our room No 5 was big and very comfortable with good facilities. The inclusion of breakfast in the room was a nice thoughtful addition. We fully enjoyed the accommodation. The plumbing in the ensuite was a problem as we couldn't get the shower to provide a hot (or even lukewarm) shower by either of the lever or tap controls. The sink however provided very hot water and cold water ok, though if the sink stopper was pushed down it wouldn't come back up to empty the water in the basin. The stopper linkage mechanism below the basin needed adjustment to open it again. Parking in the road outside the Rooms was always full, and the car park along the road looked quite small initially. However, we discovered it continued across the road with many more parking spaces. Each day the first 2 hours were free of charge and daily charges thereafter very reasonable. Free parking overnight from 6pm. 1 final point: it should be pointed out the rooms are all on 1st floor and stair access is quite steep & narrow. We assisted a lone gentleman with a case and walking stick down the stairs so he could hold the stair rail (on either side). I hope this helps - no major criticisms at all as a very enjoyable and comfortable stay! Thank you! "

"Hener"

"Very welcoming stay. Bedroom was really clean and confy. Wonderful breakfast. Host advised on locally points of interest. Hope to be able to stay again."

"Cosy lil room. Clean."

"Lovely modern room with plenty of space for two people. Coffee machine was a big plus for me, with the downside being the shower (electric and not very powerful), but I would happily stay here again ✅."

"Went well, a bit out of the way but that was the idea."

"If the mattress was good I would have given a full 10, but unfortunately it was severely dipped, The room however was very nice with quality touches."
