What Our Guests Are Saying

					Comfy but in need of maintenance - This quaint place has friendly staff and they are clearly trying to help you have a pleasant stay with good humor and singing whilst they go about their business. The... read more breakfast is simple and decent and there’s no shortage of egg and bacon and toast! The rooms are small and simple but clean and the beds are comfortable. 

However!

There is no wifi! It connects then disconnects, then tells you that you have the wrong password, then connects, then disconnects etc  It is an exercise in frustration before you disable it and carry on living your life without it.

The showers are another test of ones patience, and daring. There’s very little pressure if other people are also showering and the temperature oscillates between ice cold and spitting flames from the shower head. Even when there is good pressure it is still risky to get comfortable.

i urge management to attend to these 2 problems as i would rather find another place next time i return with a group.
