Wonderful Stay in the Countryside

friendly localsrenovated barneasy parkinglovely garden
The team running the business. The pub had friendly locals and their dogs with a cute atmosphere. The accommodation was modern and comfortable and located in a separate renovated barn. I found parking easy, and I was pleased with the lovely garden.
I noticed fire doors in the hotel slammed during the night. This rattled the hotel due to loud bangs as the doors shut.

the owners are so warm i felt very welcome. the garden outside is idyllic i enjoyed it a lot. the food was excellent i couldn't ask for more.
large door windows looked over the back garden it offered no privacy when open. it was not possible to leave the doors open as people could see you. guests in lower rooms smoked in the garden and it filtered into our room
