accommodating hosts homemade cake sliding door warm day
sandra and david were super accommodating hosts. i got homemade cake upon arrival. the breakfast provided by them was first class. it had a lovely location with resident ducks and chickens that greeted me, i loved it
there wasn't a window that opened in the room. the adjacent bathroom did have a sliding door, but when i arrived it was a warm day. the room was really hot and even opening the sliding door didn't make a huge difference to the heat.

Really good Stay in a Good Setting

genuine hospitality fresh juice varied breakfast
The hosts demonstrated genuine hospitality. They ensured all needs were met with attentiveness. My room included fresh milk and orange juice in the mini-fridge! The large jacuzzi bath provided ultimate relaxation. I found the breakfast menu offered a good variety of choices.
The location is slightly off the main road.
