Highly recommended

We really enjoyed our stay here. It's a little bit 'out of the way', but we quite liked that aspect. There is a really good restaurant on site. Cleanliness and property presentation was excellent. My only criticism would be the check in process.. we weren't given any information relating to car parking (there is a double garage and a single parking bay but we had no idea who parks where), no information relating to the laundry etc. We had to figure this out ourselves. No big deal, but it would have been good to have been given the information. We wouldn't hesitate to return. Thank you for a good stay.
