Loved our visit to this guest house. James and Marie made us very welcome. We were given a spacious and comfortable bedroom over looking a green roof, just one of the eco credentails to be found throughout. A delicious and generous breakfast set us up for each day we were there. Will definately visit again.

Fabulous hotel. The rooms are large bright and airy, very clean and beautifully decorated. The beds are firm and very comfortable. The breakfast was yummy - especially the sausages. The hosts go the extra mile to ensure you are well looked after. AND unlike many hotels they also provide FRESH milk and not those nasty little sachets. Shower and toilet was spotless. Hubby and l travel all over uk entertaining and this hotel is far superior to others at the asking price.
