Very friendly staff. Extremely clean, comfortable and quiet room. But it’s the extra things in the room that were lovely - useful. For example, forgot my toothbrush, but there was one available in the room.

Company information

We are your hosts Sharon & Paul and will look forward to welcoming you and helping make the most of you're stay in the area .Guest rooms have all been redecorated, since we took over the aim was to make the rooms fresh and updated while attempting to keep the 16th Century charm. We all live in the main house and one of us are usually on hand for advice or recommendations on good local attractions and eating places etc. Although the bus stop is outside of the property and maybe useful in the daytime it does stop running around 8 o'clock so a car or taxi for evening trips is probably best. Paul also runs his own Massage Business and has his treatment room set up in the main house. Paul specialises in pre and post sports massage, he also offers deep tissue and relaxation massage and hot bamboo massage. If you'd like to take advantage of this during your stay just give him a call while you're here.
