a good stay
fine views lovely path
The room had fine views across the trees. i was told about a lovely path into town by the owner, and it took only 20 minutes to reach tesco and the shops. the room was lovely. It had a sink, which i always appreciate.
the towels felt a bit worn, and i thought they could perhaps be replaced for a fresher feel.
