  : Nothing. I would give this place a 0 if I could. Nothing to like or recommend apart from I recommend never booking this accommodation. Save your money!
  : Flies, flies and more flies. Dead and alive! The "guest lounge" was horrific. Left over food on the table tops and counter the lovely green fish tank and open fish food next the breakfast hot plates was appetising to say the least. Not to mention the condiments set aside that was out of date. The highlight was the fresh and fermented fruit well presented in the centre of the dining table being eaten by a few other lodgers (flies) Aside from the amount of dust and dirt lingering, the hanging bits of tape in the corners of the room was delightful. Also full of flies. (queue the itching and scratching) The room had already been occupied by big boris in the corner, guarding the crusty coffee jar and bottled water sat bathing in the sun shine. To add to the basking in the sun, you could do that your self with a sun lounder all night with a blanket at the foot of the bed. Excellent place for a tiny human to lay their precious head, while your toes dangle off the mattress that doesn't fit the bed. I have never see somewhere so disgusting. This was the most unhygienic place, flies, dirt, dust and lack of care from the property owner has really let this place down. The photos look brill and we was looking forward to the stay but we had to find alternative accommodation. WOULD NEVER EVER GO BACK!

  : The room was spiders & cobwebs, the light in the room didn't work & there was no lock on the bedroom door or front door so we didn't feel safe in staying & there left once we'd returned from our concert
  : As above and it advertised a spa which was a dirty pool as pictured below

  : Nothing except the dog Lulu who was very cute.
  : Bed gave us both neck ache. We both had a very poor nights sleep. Woken by heavy traffic early even tho. the house is set back from the road. The room was tired with peeling wall paper and very claustrophobic with the broken bunk beds included. The bathroom was horrible with bath panels hanging off, cracked and missing tiles and old manky soap. In all fairness to the lady owner the areas we visited were clean given the decor standard. Arrived at 8pm and spent the entire evening in a double bed space. Had to ask for the tea facility and no towels provided. Felt very much like we were intruding in a family home with the owner seemingly distracted by running the family home and the Letting side very much an after thought. The breakfast offer was good but the cooked breakfast luke warm even tho we were there at 8am, as requested. The web site needs to be much clearer in stating that this is a room in a family home. 60 a night - you get what you pay for.

  : Karen was lovely and so was her daughter....made you feel at home and nothing was too much trouble The bed was comfortable and I enjoyed cuddles with the dog and watching the goats and alpacas.Was nice quiet location.Rained a lot of the time I was there so was quite muddy as you would expect...not a problem though...I had some boots and it was lovely going for a morning walk around the property
  : Lighting in bedroom wasn't the best for reading...a brighter bedside lamp would have been better.Not as many animals as it said on website

  : Friendly Helpful Staff/family. Breakfast good. Nothing too much trouble if you asked.
  : There was loud music until late from the other end of the garden. Pool out of action. No quick access to hot tub as you have to walk around whole property in your swimwear, so we chose not to bother.

  : The location was good, price was good and the friendliness of the staff was really good. The beds were comfortable and breakfast was help yourself with a good choice, plus they got in some oat milk at my request.
  : I wasn't prepared to be staying in someone's home. Having to take shoes off at the front door is something I've never been asked to do when staying in a B&B. There wasn't a shower curtain on the bath so the floor got soaked. The hot tap water should have had a warning as it was scaldingly hot. The toilet cistern sounded like it kept filling up for hours after it was flushed. The futon bed for my son was just like a camp bed and a spring pinged off when he sat on it so I had to reattach it before bedtime. The room was quite small for the size of the bed frame which was very large. The room could do with a bit of tlc and the skirting by the bath consisted of peeled paint and bare wood. There was a Now TV box but only Netflix was logged in and that knocked us out when we tried to watch.
