    Lovely hosts, nothing is too much trouble. Great, peaceful setting with all you need from a B and B..plus the joy of a small kitchen in the garden room so you do not have to eat out at restaurants every night.

    We were grateful that the hostess gave us clear instructions to reset the sat- nav as the last leg of the journey we needed to rest which made it easy to find. We were very happy with clean comfortable rooms with lovely views and fast internet...
