We chose this property for its location but quickly became disappointed when it took 30 minutes for someone to answer the door to check us in. The WiFi did not work (unable to use Netflix) and there was barely any cell reception. The beds in the room we stayed in need upgrading (coil springs). Difficult to sleep due to quality of beds. Pillows/beds and towels need upgrading. Other issues as well need addressing like broken toilet seat. The host was friendly but upgrades and maintenance are require at least for the room we stayed in. The breakfast in the morning was appreciated.
Breakfast was tasty and serviced with quick hospitality. We Stayed in Room #7 which has no window, but a skylight that wouldn’t close. It felt like being trapped in a box at times. This detracted from the comfort level of this B&B.
Poor experience at arrival. I rang the bells multiple times, no reply. I called, no answer. Just as we decided to leave and look for somewhere else to stay, the owner/manager came out. She said the bells were not ringing inside the property. Bathroom ridiculously small. Have never seen anything like it.
Host was friendly and helpful providing suggestions and directions to the area. Breakfast was great with lots of choices and tasty food. Area was quiet but only a 20minute walk to the town centre making it easy to explore the area. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks
Great place for a 2 couples or a family of 4. Two very nice double rooms. Spacious and comfortable. Only a few minutes' walk from a railway station. Would definitely stay here again.
My family had a comfortable stay. Our host was helpful with recommendations and the breakfast was great.

We had bad luck with what we think was their worst room (#6). The bathroom was smaller than any cruise ship bathroom we've had. We worried about fire safety as the only window was a roof skylight. Host was friendly enough but not great. Overpriced for what we got. Breakfast was timely and good.
