Excellent

A very straightforward remote check in by phone on arrival. Very quiet despite being on a main road. We were amazed how quiet when we saw lots of other guests at breakfast time. Lovely room, great sleep. Thanks
Nice guest house - well cleaned - good staff - excellently cooked breakfast - fried egg just right - moist mushrooms - sausages to perfection - good bacon - and a properly done potato scone, I want to go back - it is breakfast time.
The property has charm and character. Very clean and quiet. Breakfast was excellent.

No greeting
Nobody greeted us as we had to let ourselves in via a key safe & it felt creepy on entrance. The heating made banging noises which was annoying. I don’t think the hosts know as they are not on site in the evening. Breakfast was lovely and it has plenty of free parking. The building is quite run down & needs some renovation work.
outside area including outbuildings and driveway very neglected and poorly maintained

Disappointing
This property needs renovation! Could look so impressive but looks like it has been languishing for some time. Entry was guesswork! Bedroom was clean & bed comfortable. Dark heavy furniture & dark walls. Windows needed painting. Depressing.
