ample parking great breakfast poor soundproofing adjacent room
The parking was ample, my car stayed put as I used the bus to get around. The breakfast was great (especially the fried bread Darren makes!).
The room I was in lacked soundproofing. I could clearly hear conversations from the adjacent room (it woke me up one night).

totally awesome experience!
super clean room fresh milk kind hosts
i enjoyed such a super clean and well-decorated room. it had everything i needed! fresh milk was available every day in the mini-fridge, that's so cool. jo and darren were the greatest hosts ever, so helpful and kind!
honestly, i found the on-site parking area a bit limited, making it a little tricky to find a spot when returning later in the day.

A Total Gem!
warm welcome spacious room yummy breakfast
I enjoyed a wonderful stay! The hosts were very friendly, and they gave me such a warm welcome. My room was spacious, and it had tea, coffee, water, and biscuits. Breakfast each morning was excellent, so yummy! I had beautiful dinners too.
Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, so I really loved how attentive they were. The only very tiny thing is that I wished there was a full-length mirror in the room.
