Great location, delicious breakfast, hospitable hosts

Room was very small, but it didn’t affect our stay

Carolyn - 01/02/2025

Easy to find, not far from bus stop straight into the city centre, comfortable bed, TV apps all working. Overall very cosy and easy to relax in.

It would be helpful to have a hairdryer in the room - though we note one was available upon request. This could be made clearer when booking.

Comfortable bed and good shower. Friendly hosts. Conveniently on bus route to city centre.

Two flights of stairs to get to room. Although fresh milk offered for tea, it went off quickly as there was no refrigeration in room. Only two teabags offered, though I didn't ask for more - ended up buying our own supply.

Location with off road parking Friendly lovely owner. Room Cleanliness and good hot shower Would recommend the Excellent scrambled eggs for breakfast Can come and go as you wish

Nothing really apart from I would prefer to have breakfast in a breakfast room instead of in your room but the breakfast was served on time and hot each morning.
