Summary: The staff and owners made me feel very welcome and made my stay very pleasant. They even made sure I had a good breakfast before I left early in the morning. The stables were very clean and spacious as well as comfortable. I slept like a baby.
Joanne Nov 2, 2023 04:11:36 PM
Summary: The room was lovely. Each one has it’s own parking space in front. Loads of space, bath and separate walk-in shower. Tea and Nespresso provided too. Huge bed - bigger than a superking - and really, really comfy. We were late arriving but Kate had been in to turn the heating on and came over to make sure everything was ok. Tasty breakfast in the pub the following morning. Very amiable and relaxing atmosphere. We’d definitely stay again and highly recommend
