Good but room for improvement
Bed was comfortable, nice new carpet, everything functional. However, there was an issue with the awful smell from the shower waste and this was attracting flies. Also please note the shower valve is loose. We were pleased that our request for cleaner, fly spray and air freshener. Thank you for your help.

Lovely, clean, friendly and accommodating
We really enjoyed our stay, clean, very friendly and accommodating. We had a kettle in our room with ample tea and coffee and en-suite shower room. We could pick what we wanted for breakfast in the morning with access to a fridge with water and juices. We were made to feel very welcome and would definitely stay here again.
