Richard
Great little spot to stay only few miles from RSPB and can walk few minutes to nice pub. Beds very soft and cosy which some of us loved but is a matter of preference. Note for owner (do not publish) - bathroom upstairs (with bath) has very slight leak under radiator (?valve) and basin taps are tricky to use - may be worth getting someone to look at. Did not affect our stay but could be a maintenance issue.

Everything you need is provided. Clean, comfortable with a delightful garden. If Iâm being ultra picky the only downside was being woken up almost every morning by schoolchildren arriving for school at 8-20am. However, Iâm sure this wouldnât be an issue for others

The property was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Good quality bedding and towels.
