A very comfortable stay. Maybe not the best place to stay in February as it was very cold and no doors to hall or kitchen meant the heat escaped from the living room area and took such an age to warm up. The welcome box was lovely and the milk in the fridge was a very nice touch as we needed a coffee when we arrived.We forgot to write in the guestbook , but thank you for a good stay.
