    Great location for the village with excellent parking and private garden. Very warm and cosy. We took our fire stick for the evenings. We didn’t realise when we booked that the accommodation is only part of the building and is accessible by a flight if stairs. Not a problem for us.

    Breakfast was not inclusive with our stay, but we were so impressed with the breakfast on the first morning, that we didn't look for anywhere else. Their Eggs Benedict was exceptional. The flat rate breakfast fee of £10 for non-inclusive residents, worked out cheaper than casual diners selecting breakfasts from the same menu. It was great value for money. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. The village is extremely peaceful and quiet at night time, and we felt very safe walking the dog in the early hours of the morning.
