Very comfortable room and excellent breakfast in very pleasant surroundings. Good evening meal. So homely and comfortable. Very large bathroom. Stayed in room 2 with superb views of hills around. Will come again and ask for same rooms.

If you feel like going to a place full of doom and gloom where you are seen as a nuisance rather than a guest, then go here! I have never ever met such a miserable lady host in all my life, and although cheapish the rooms were definitely downbeat. The type where electrics are connected with extension leads, mold in...
