It was overall the very disappointing accommodation, so much so that my wife was appalled by the room that I had to book alternative room for the rest for our stay the ‘Lyndale Fuest house’ which was 100x better, roughly the same price per night but no comparison between the room, furthermore you also get a brilliant breakfast as well, better then any cafe in the district handsdown. In summary don’t waste your money on this accommodation. Avoid.
