Dark haired lady on duty on our first night was lovely, friendly and very professional (apologies for not having a name). Contact via the app was good and the code access worked well. We enjoyed our stay.

    Room standard was exceptional, whole guest house spotless. Breakfast - so fresh, plenty to choose from, daily specials a bit different too. Bottled chilled water and fresh milk - help yourself. Hosts would do anything they could to make your stay one of the best. WiFi just like being at home. Quiet but very central location.

    House was in a great location. Very close to shops etc. Lovely view of river and great walks along the river. So quiet and peaceful. Our dog loved his daily dip in water. Host was brilliant, very informative prior to stay with very helpful videos of how to get to property and gain access. House was very well equipped and well presented. Even the neighbours were very welcoming and friendly. Overall extremely enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend to friends and family.
