Just to let you know the shower tray didn't drain easily, and the windows could do with a refurbish and stay open. The staff were attentive and helpful throughout our stay.

Can't fault the location and the rooms are well proportioned and equipped - a little bit mean with only two teabags! The staircase to rooms 1-4 in the main building is also narrow and steep
