Good stay overall

We enjoyed our stay. The facilities were really good, although there did not seem to be many showers/toilets for the number of rooms/beds. When we arrived there was only one toilet/shower available as the other was being deep cleaned. This was not a problem during our stay as there were few guests. The kitchen was really clean and well equipped. Lovely staff/owners. Comfortable bed. We had a double room, which was a lot smaller than we would have liked. Room for the bed and that was it. We had to keep our suitcase in the car. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

The best stay in our trip!!! We had a double bed and ensuite which was far better than some motels at a fraction of the price. Proprietors where very friendly and accommodating. The commercial kitchen was great everything you could ask for and very clean. Absolutely 5 stars from us
