The guest house had a fantastic location, perfect for exploring the surrounding area. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the room was equipped with everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the environmentally-friendly touches, which made us feel like we were making a positive impact during our stay.

Although we had a great stay overall, the steep hill up to the guest house was a bit of an inconvenience, particularly after a long day of exploring.

From start to finish everything went like clockwork and was so organised. We said it was cleaner and more welcoming than any 5star hotel. The bed was really comfortable with an extra blanket for those who feel cold in the cupboard. Breakfasts are huge so we didn’t eat all day! The owner was very knowledgeable and helpful regarding walks and places to go as well. Nothing is too much trouble either including a mini fridge and fan in the room, which was so welcome in this hot weather. And the daily slice of cake and fresh milk for our room if we wanted it were a great surprise too. All in all a great stay.

I recently stayed at a wonderful guest house in a charming village. The view from our room was spectacular and the host, Emma, was incredibly sweet and helpful. The family suite was perfect for us with two separate rooms connected by a landing. The room and bathroom were connected, which was convenient. There were also small treats and tea service in the room. The parlor was a great area to relax in, and we enjoyed the fresh cakes that our host made.
