    Felt like family

    Just came back from 2 nights at this cozy spot. John and Lisa are super friendly, making us feel right at home! Room was perfect with even a sea view. Sunday dinner was a steal – no need to splurge at fancy places! Just a bummer they stopped evening meals during the week.

    legendary roast
    fantastic breakfast
    complimentary sherry
    tepid shower
    soft pillows

    Oh, the roast Sunday lunch by John is legendary! Every bite of the locally sourced meats was a true delight. Plus, the breakfast spread was top-notch, featuring fresh fruit salad and perfectly-cooked eggs to kickstart your day. The warm welcome and complimentary sherry in the room added a lovely touch!

    The shower was a tad tepid and lacked pressure, making hair washing a challenge. Would have preferred firmer pillows, but to be fair, the fab stay outweighed these minor hiccups. Can’t wait to delve into that Sunday roast soon!

    Warm welcome from the owners and they even upgraded our room which was just stunning. The breakfast was freshly cooked and a great way to start the day in a cozy atmosphere.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but you get what you pay for.

    delicious roast dinner
    cozy atmosphere
    thin walls

    We had an amazing time, especially enjoying the delicious roast dinner and cozy atmosphere of our dog-friendly room. Relaxation was a breeze with lovely garden spots and easy access for quick walks with our pup. The walls are a bit thin, so earplugs are nice, but it didn't affect our fun at all! 😊
