I had a lovely stay at this little BnB. The hosts were quite friendly and the room was very comfortable. It's a short walk down to the village where there are a few stores and cafes.

Beautifully renovated b&b with great management. It's self check-in and self service breakfast, but Jayne stays in contact from booking to check out and everything is clear, convenient and beautiful. Was able to recharge my body and car(EV charging available overnight upon request, which is so convenient on holiday.) Will come back, and would definitely recommend to others.
