A lovely B&B which had everything you would need. Clean and comfortable and Malcolm, our Host, could not have been more helpful or hospitable. He even ran us in his car to the venue we were going to on the Saturday evening. The breakfast, which he cooked, was great with a varied selection of anything you could want. Altogether would highly recommend and would certainly go back there again when visiting our friends in that area. Absolutely top class.
